i was hoping to see the ouput set up to flow forward staying low, when using a manifold that hangs the turbo low like that (which i prefer...) with a small jog to the right into the headlight area and then around to the IC...you end up with a much shortened route/tubing to the IC inlet....


and a somewhat stealthier appearance

i do love NOT seeing a damn intake mani stetched across the top of the motor i do say!
i think you have your outputs and inputs mixed. i think youre talking about the charge pipe. sometimes people will run them this way is something else is blocking.

Nice build overall. Who really cares about the cost, as long as it is done right, reliable, and you keep the AC.
