Default pie cut manifold

ive been lurking for awhile, but i guess this is my first post....

im building a 4agte for my mr2, but im using a k03 turbo, from an audi....

im on a college budget, so i browsed around, and figured that this was actually cheaper than buying some els and making a log manifold...this was the best bang for my buck....this is my first forray into this kind of fab, so its not wier tech sexy, but ive totaly seen uglier....enjoy

....simplest collector i could come up with, and still be able to get to the studs

meh, i used the calculator and protractor a few times...not alot....and i still have the little jig i set up, so when the time comes to build a nicer one, itll fit just the same....

its gonna get heat wrapped anyways, just so it doesnt look so ghetto to the untrained eye
