Car looks nice man. What kind of power do you think you are making? I don't know anything about gm turbo's.

Also maybe since you got more flow, and ebay wastegate? IDK, just throwing it out there.

Nice whip though! Now get that ef boosted.

Exhaust gases will exit through the path of least restriction. Looks like your wastegate placement is shitty.

you mean welded to the 4-1 collector on the manifold? wastegate placement is perfect.

because they look like crap. there needs to be SOME contrast.
