Looks like we'll have nearly identical setups then considering we both have the S5 manifold. You just happen to have alot larger($$$) turbo than I. Is that a brass check valve in your coolant line?

Yeah I spent an ass load on my turbo. not sure how smart it was but what is done is done. |
The only problem I would have with using that custom manifold would be that it might not fit my turbo either. The picture you have of your current setup, what manifold exactly is it? It looks like a cast one, is it? Did you have to use a custom downpipe for it too? You still have an external wastegate in there somewhere?

The Mani i'm using now is in my sig.. BEGI S5 it's cast and externally gated. I used a custom DP but BEGI will make one up for you i'm sure. |
So with your Greddy EMU you were able to get 660s to work well? With MS I always thought that 550s was about tops on where you should go to control them.
