So, what do you guys think of this basic design? Simple, effective, and somewhere between a log and full 4-1 design. The runners for cyl 2/3 will go straight out. Cutting the center elbows and welding them like the picture will help direct/smooth exhaust flow, and keep the pulses from 1/2 and 3/4 seperate. The turbo flange sticks out about 5.5", and should leave room enough for a 2.5"dp. I may end up rotating the center portion about ~30* up to help clear the 'shelf' area, but preliminary measurments says it should be ok as is.

If you can get the turbo in there it is a great design. All the gases flow the right way. Clearing the shelf will be the biggest hurdle. If you use a small compressor housing with a large wheel that would probably do the trick, but you would have to have the compressor housing machined to pull it off... it would be rather stealthy though since it would appear to be a much smaller turbo than it really is.
