I'm getting antsy. It's time to prep parts for install. Yesterday I started coating the exhaust manifold.

Once i get the coating cured, i've got some titanium exhaust wrap to cover the manifold. Gonna be tight between some of those runners though, so hopefully i don't have to many gaps in the wrap.

Started work on wrapping the manifold. This is a lot tougher than i thought it would be.

plastic zip ties will be replaced with stainless ones before i spray a coating over the wrap. the plastics are just there to help with the wrapping process and keep the winds tight.

more!

Dude, looking good! I've got a good N tight manifold lined up, hopefully it will be mine soon enough.

Looking good..!!!

Where do you find said Good&Tight manifolds? And what's about did it cost ya? If you don't mind me asking.

Edit: Do you maybe get them from ^^that guy^^?

What Turbo? HX40?

H1E, which i think is similar. just older.

And wastegate has to be a 44
Mm vband right? Kinda screws up my plans to use a synapse

yes it's 44mm vband. can always run an adapter in between, but you may run into clearance issues.
