I decided that it was time to go a different route on my 1G so I opted to spend some money on a shearer manifold
this is one of the most beautiful manifolds I have ever personally seen , the welds are perfect, how the runners flow are perfect , flanges are beautifully machined, its just an all around great product that these guys put out. As far as the price goes, It is well worth it and you know what they say you pay to play
here are some of the pictures that I have so far of the manifold and turbo.
Enjoy and I will take some pictures of the 4 inch exhaust that is already on the car
have a great day

thanks, the 4 inch side exit SS exhaust is all tacked up now as well as the 3 inch charge pipe, so now I just need to figure out what to do for a radiator as space is very limited under the hood
Nice. That thing is going to fly, I can't wait to see it in action!

thanks wayne
by the way you got my order right for the evo ?
I sent you a little extra as well
this is the turbine housing that I would like you to coat for me. You don't foresee that as being a problem do you
I did get the order....and thank you! I was wondering if that was right. Now why can't all customers be like you:beer

I have had a 3 inch exhaust section exit in that location before, and did not have a problem with the bumper melting :)
anyway here are some updates including the 5 inch intake and relocated wastegate so that I could fit a full size radiator with a 42
also pictures with the second A1000 installed on the chasis
here ya go
Time for an update
well I did not like how close the relocated gate was to the oil filter so I moved it up a little higher in the engine bay. I actually prefer this location, plus it gave me a better angle for the dump tubes from each gate to keep them relatively uniform and in the same location.
here are some pics of what the gates look like with the dump tubes attached

the dump tubes if you were looking straight through the bumper

Next on the list was some kind of an intake system for the Gt42 well the inlet was 5 inches so I ordered up some 5 inch aluminum pipe and cut it the orientation that I wanted. This was quite a challenge to cut such a large pipe with my 14 inch chop saw, but it turned out "ok" I will be welding a Velocity stack that they use on carburators (sp) to it as they also have a foam insert inside the velicity stack
heres what it looks like now (the velocity stack is not yet purchased)

I also mounted up the second a1000 to the chasis, I have not run the lines into the existing system yet as I ran out of money for fittings and check valves :)2
