I decide to do this as a temporary setup until I make up my mind on what kind of turbo I'll be topping the new motor off with. I know it's been done already but, I'd like any feedback you guys want to give.

My only concern would be that thinwall pipe you used. I used schedule 40 black pipe. If you recirculate that wastegate, you must use a flex coupler with your mounting being that long. Lots of expansion and contraction.

Otherwise, looks good man.

support the wasgate pipe that goes to manifold so that vibrations wont lead to a crack...
