Thanks! Hope the finished product doesn't disappoint.

Turbosmart wastegates in! Engine should be going in soon so I can mock up the hardline.

This build is Sick Nasty, and I don't use that term lightly.

I don't even know what I'm looking at but I see at least two and usually two is better than one especially where there were zero to begin with!

Hahaha, yeah, this is a twin scroll so there's 2 wastegates. One for each runner on a divided manifold!

I've been seeing "twin scroll" a lot lately around the internet. What does it do differently?

It just means the turbine housing on the turbo is divided so the manifold is divided. It helps push air into small groups of runner to spool the turbo faster.

Take a look at this article from my sponsor

It's been a long few days but engine is in, fuel tank, subframe and roof is out! Also some small brackets have been drilled out.

Amazing build!
Just wondering is this a straight up track car now?
Also are there any plans to corner balance the car and post the front/rear weight bias info?

I'll probably still drive it on the street. I'll have more info with the scales once it's done but since I cut so much crap out, I don't know if it'll be worth the info to anyone.
