Very nice!

I can't wait for the thing to actually come together and start laying rubber.

On a side note, when you start to tackle the heads and cams, i've got a few tools that you might want to borrow.... make life a little easier. I'm always down for a work party.

Joe - neighbor... who's going on the other side of the hill??? Thanks for the offer... I most likely will take you up on that. I'm going to have the machine shop button up the block for me though. I'm running out of free time with work and all. We'll see how it goes.

Thanks.

I'm a lot closer than I was January 1st - let's put it that way!!!

nice, good to see some real pics of the UIWG mounted, I'm curious as to the boost creep issue as well. It seems as though it'll act the same as if it were a 5 bolt flange with an external welded to the wastegate port, just the UIWG makes plumbing much easier.

except the exhaust stream from the wastegate will be much closer to the turbine outlet... but as far as boost control, it shouldn't be a whole lot different.

Close - previous owner did some splicing into the cable and used duct tape. After a while, the duct tape gets pretty messy.
