Re: Project: Mavro Gato (56K ... Get a cup of coffee)

Well, I didn't get to work on the turbo kit as much as I would have liked this weekend, but I will keep at it this week in the evenings ... I should be able to finish it next weekend ... two weeks from now for sure. Here is today's progress:

tacked up the Y-pipe/Up-pipe assembly and ensured fitment



A closeup of how I marked the pipes for fitment and then tacked them in 4 spots



The finished product fully seem welded



I'm going to have to get creative with the downpipe routing and/or rebend my up-pipe.
