It's all on now!!!!! NO leaks, no drips, just the horribly loud goodness of a straight open turbo exhaust lololol. Tommorrow morning I'm running to the exhaust shop to get my DP made, have to fix the mixing manifold, since I don't have the coolant reroute there is no flow coming from the back of the head (thanks joe for that info) so I was over heating like a mother, other than that I have to fix my waste gate routing. Spool is way different Kinda hate the lag but maybe when I'm all sorted out I'll be ok

Be sure to get some videos. If you don't get used to the lag I've got that head sitting in my room I'm working on that I'm sure will help a good bit with that
