Elegance. its happening.
Tomorrow night im cutting off the T2 flange and modifying the manifold to work with the turbo, then taking it to the welder to have them TIG it.... i dont have the proper gas for my MIG and i much prefer a nice clean weld for something like this.
from there i need to see how the downpipe is going to work out and hopefully everything will line up, but that may be optimistic.
planning on being boosted next week and then i will head to the m-tuned shop for some dyno time.

Just a verbal update... been driving the car for a few days now... ~1200km...
the car is just as responsive if not more responsive than before.
with no boost control setup, i am getting full boost off the wastegate spring (10psi) at 3600-3700rpm. (2871R 0.86TiAL exhaust with 56 trim compressor wheel)
only difference besides that is the vband flange on the turbo manifold and i modified my downpipe to be externally vented since it was being a royal pain to setup and it keeps me a little more sane on the street.

.86 hotside I think is too big, should have went .63 the power difference isn't worth the lag associated with the .86. Numbers don't seem right though, I made 60+ whp more at only 3 more psi then you with a .48 hotside

when actually driving my car it was very fun. im not worrying about the response. change your driving style a hair for a larger turbo and you will be ok....
my engine blew, so im done for the season waiting for a rebuild or some swap.
