Vey cool to see this progressing nicely

Wastegate placement is now worked out.

That is a beautiful manifold.

Yeah I'm really happy with it, can't wait to see it all tiged up and ceramic coated.
Built me a gearbox crossmember and mounted the intercooler the other night.
Tiged up brackets and nutserts into the chassis, fits beaut.
600x300x76 intercooler with 3 inch outlets surprisingly fits across the front just in front of the radiator if its moved back by one hole on the support so as its vertical with room for the outlets, and I can still use the factory shrouf and a mechanical fan.
SO 2j vvti flyby wire throttle body is a farked idea for what I want, the bolt pattern for the throttle is different to a non vvti item, but the top half of the manifold can be swapped with the throttle complete for a non vvti mechanical item....that still has the traction control shite attached.
Has a rubbish 2 3/4 outside diameter.
No worries, 5 inch grinder out, onto the lathe, bring the outside diameter to interference fit the inside of some 3 inch alloy pipe, roll a lip, cut length to fit, tap him on, tig, will lathe nice again tommorow once he cools down.
As the radiator had been moved back one hole on the bracket to stand it up vertical and make room for the intercooler outlets the factory plastic infill would now be too short so I cut a new one out of some ally sheet, added some nutserts to tie it all in to the bracket and ran some rubber edging along the sides, for neatness and to stop any rubbing on the rad core where it just tucks up under the top tank for a good seal.
Nice work!

Cheers Konakid, it came up alright, I plan to tie the top of the intercooler into it also for some extra support, stop the brackets welded onto the end tanks from possibly cracking over time.
Marks Engineering lower neck rotator and a billet timing belt tensioner pulley, V- nicely made parts these.
The manifold is all tig'd up and the flanges linished flat.
Also have started work on the dump and wastefate pipes, 4" dump and just for the heck of it lathed the inside edge of the v band flange for a nice smooth radius.
