Nice- exhaust looks awesome, so does the v-banded turbo, wastegate, etc.
Where on the IC piping did you put the MAF?
Can't wait to see the results with higher boost. The only thing I would have done differently would be the head gasket. 9:1 compression is too high for a 70mm turbo. I would have gone with a 2.5 mm gasket (~8.3:1 compression)- and taken advantage of higher levels of boost.
Regardless, great work

For the MAF I extended the wiring and mounted it in the inner fender/front bumper...you can see it in this picture here...kinda

Of coarse if the engine is in good condition! I bought my car from the original owner, always ran synthetic oil and runs as strong as it would have off the showroom floor so I was never worried to slap a turbo on.
