this isn't that bad, when I did the b16 swap it sat for 4 weeks while I fucked with it trying to figure out why the hell it ran for one night and wouldn't start again.

I don't know for sure about that, it might only run long enough for me to get down the street at full boost and it explodes. my manifold is so fucked up, round 2 will be much better planned or something. I have leaks everywhere on that piece of ----.

rewelding isn't going to fix a warped flange and some crooked ass studs.

do it right the first time and dont go cheap or ghetto, cheap or ghetto can be done right, but it took me 2 different turbo setups before i had one that ran for more than a month, and now this is reliable and quick. things not to cheap out on are
feul management, i.e. ecu, injectors, wiring for injectors
oil lines, feed, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY return, if your return is kinked say by e bye to the turbo and hello to smoke all day
anything else you can cheap out on, the piping bov etc etc

I only want this ---- to last long enough for me to get the ls block finished, could be years at the rate I'm going. I'm thinking of doing another manifold that puts the turbo compressor inlet facing the front of the car since I have no ic and a half radiator so it would be wide open.
