Srs question: is the wastegate angled 90° to the flow of exhaust going to be able to flow enough to keep up? I'm no engineer but fluids (such as exhaust) will generally take the path of least resistance, and the .80A/R housing isn't going to provide a whole bunch of challenge.
Again, I'm not a fluid dynamics guy or injuneer, just a casual observer. I may also be slightly drunk and shooting off questions.

We've finalized the details and attributes that will be offered for the Side Mount EFR Manifold (although nothing is set in stone) and it's live on the site. The first 4 are already sold, there goes our attempt to stock them - so we've prepared for full on production starting next week.

For those who would like to know, the down pipe is going to be a sub $400 solution.

This turned out to be a really nice, short downpipe configuration, especially for how high the turbo appears to be... as for MC clearance, it's at least a couple of inches, on this car specifically however the bottom brake line is awkwardly bent towards the down pipe for some reason.

Wow that looks great. Amazing how much space is saved by not having a big 5 bolt flange to connect the two.
Is it possible to change the location of the MC? As you said it shouldn't be an issue, and it is a very simple job to cover the MC with a heat shield, would just be a cool solution to mount it farther towards the drivers side.
Man getting the angle correct on the downpipe sure looks like a time consuming job and a lot of wasted pipe getting it just right.
AWESOME clock by the way!

You could do it without moving the pedal at all. You could put it on a pivot/angled bracket like Ford did on the pre 1974 "early" Bronco. Not the best picture ever, but it gets the idea across.
Looks like it would be a PITA to fabricate and probably not woth the effort.
