              It's 60mm, I'll just dump it.
              Really wanted to dump it out the bumper but it's hard to justify cutting up an mtech 2 valance.

                  this build is nuckin futs.

                  maybe a silly question from a turbo noob, but where will you be able to mount the single wastegate if you have separate runners all the way to the turbo flange?

                    Thanks. I will hole saw both pipes and have new pipes come off and merge together into the wastegate flange. Just need to put it all back in the car this week and figure out placement of wastegate.

                      Bought some Motorsport Hardware studs and black chrome lug nuts to match my wheel bolts. Still waiting for my gurney flap.
