I've determined that to be a true statement...

More progress... Justin finished the drivers side turbo manifold... The first pic is the last turn into the T4 flange... The braces are to show clearance and for alignment... They will be removed... This last stretch is 3.5 inch pipe, and will partially make up the end of the collector... These will flow lots of hot exhaust gas...

Ok, so only one pic loaded... Here is another... In this pic, the pipe being fitted is round, and doesn't quite fit to the collector.. But it will be welded on the outer edges and the part out of alignment will be bent inward to fit perfectly to the collector end making it an extension...

I wish, I can't take credit for any of this fabrication... That credit goes to Justin Bloomer... Completely hand fabricated from scratch... and very heavy duty.... They will both support the weight of the turbo hanging off of them and take the heat we'll be throwing at them in mile and mile plus runs...
Here is the final product of the drivers side manifold... The vast majority of this will never be seen outside of the shop... but we may.... still coat them... or we may leave them uncoated and let them heat color... I have to say the tops of the pipes coming off the flanges would look beautiful discolored from the heat.... They will see some I can promise... The primary tubes in the flanges will be cleaned up just a tad and the final fit will take place on the car... Radiused to match the gasket... and welded out to my knowledge...

Thanks Tim.... It's been a long road, with a few twisted ankles...
Welcome Pierre... Seen you hanging around with Tim.... he's a bad influence.... makes me want to spend money making Brandi look better... I'm considering borrowing a friends FF camera and mounting it under the hood.... I can assure you they will glow brightly during a mile run....
