Got into tearing it apart for the manifold construction.
Verry happy to find that all four oil and coolant lines are so close together on the front of the motor, makes things alittle easier.
Took a couple comparison pics. As you can see the new turbo is about the same size as the stock turbo WITH the manifold attatched.
Comparison of the two cold sides. . .
And my favorite part is the differance in the wastgate flappers.
I got my turbo flange and at this point im just wating on my head flange to start on the manifold. I'll post more during construction.
