well a while back i had made a flange that bolts up to the inlet of the compressor but it didn't come out as nice as i would have liked. And i'm too lazy to weld a pipe to it. But seeing i can't find any nice ones online i might just remake it. But next up on the project is going to be a tial wastegate, so we'll see what happens after that;)

ordered a brand new tial wastegate today in blue:yes:

so basically that's all the hardware i need. Now comes the hard part of fabbing up a downpipe, routing intercooler piping and getting it all to work:rolleyes:

Hard part nothing. I had an exhaust shop bend mine for me. I took 'em a case of beer and it cost me around $100, if I remember right.

you had them make you a custom DP, and route all IC piping?

Yeah...the place was more like a job shop than an exhaust shop. They'd bend metal for basically anything. They just used exhaust tubing and took a few measurements and routed everything. I was the one who actually bolted it up, but they did all the mandrel bending.
