Yes many people have 'fisted' his turbo, thats why we have the compressor covered now. Its funny, people will walk into the office, and notice it after like 10 minutes, and be like "WTF is that going on?". Before they'd see it right away and start fondling.

What manifold are you running with that turbo?

We need a manifold? ported 2g won't fit?

Shucks, lets pull the plug on the project.

J/k. It'll be a custom tubular stainless unit.

Is there a particular software package you guys are using for manifold design?

No, I will put the turbo where I want it, then make the manfold to fit, with as equal legth runners as possible. And the waist gate off the colleter in the direction of flow.

Looks like they're just tacked.

We are waiting on the tie down bars to the center after a chassis inspector comes out, as well as the shock tower ties. We have run into a discrepency with the rulebook and are waiting to hear back from Nopi/NDRA on it. Worst case senerio is the cage will be good to 8.50 et's.
More pics.

Damn, thats looking good. Let's hope that the inspector says it's "all good" that way my jungle gym can get started :D . It looks like all that thing needs is a tach, an engine and maybe some lexan then its ready to go.
