Chris, do they make downpipes for that sort of turbo in that location or are you going to be getting a custom downpipe made?

the cross member shouldnt be that hard to come by, and the clutch line can be bought from Enjuku Racing Parts, LLC, thats a very reliable site, some of their prices are high on certain things, but I got a lot of my stuff from them.

I haven't updated in a while, but I did a few things, and got some more stuff.
As for parts, I got an autometer dual a-pillar gauge pod, and an AEM UEGO Wideband A/F ratio gauge, and I got my clutch too. I also turned the cold side of my turbo to how it needs to be, which is down, and I also test fit the rest of the turbo stuff.


Clutch:


And I got bored, and decided to hook up my oil press gauge to a bettery
