Just a couple big squares of it. You'll see in the pics to come. I'll put my shoes on and do some non-drunken Sunday morning pics.

also, isn't that o2 bung a little close for wideband sensor? I've always been told to put it 20" away from the turbine for longevity.. can't source any reliable citation for that though

I'm not sure what's not to like about the wastegate. With so many manifolds putting up like a trophy, or sticking out of somewhere, I like the tight fit of where it is. The downpipe has 2 O2 bungs. One you see, and one sitting on the back of it just before the crossmember.

Yeah after all that work, at least go OEM with the headlights. It's too clean-looking so far to ruin it with those.

Glad to hear you have your priorities straight.
