Some manufacturers of the material use a green coating and some use black.

Do you guys think I'll have a problem with the wastegate flange welded horizontally? In my mind that's how I wanted it mounted but now I'm thinking I will have hood clearance issues. I really need to stop smoking that funny stuff. I have a problem thinking things through rationally. :1

I didn't have a wastegate at the time and this is my first time peicing together a kit.

Damn I wish I could have got it coated like that for thirty dollars, that looks nice.
Could anyone answer my question though?

I think you will have a problem with it because the dump tube is gonna hit the manifold. if it directly above it.
