Today I mounted the turbo to the manifold for the first time, also started fabricating the downpipe. Everything is extremely tight, with very tight clearances to the motor mount and jack shaft, but in the end it should be good. I could have mounted the turbo differently but I didn't want to make the exhaust piping too crazy, with the current layout the two mufflers will exit center on the bumper of the car. Still contemplating what tip to use, but in reality its going to be a long time before I have to mount one.
Very nice! Are you going to add a lower support under the turbo? It looks like it hangs out there a bit.
