Made up a Downpipe to connect the v band on the turbo to my silencer. Made the pipe from mandrel bent 3 inch stainless steel sections, taped in to place and sent it away for mig welding. Will also get a lambda fitting welded in.

Turbo Rebuild #9 - Fitted the Manifold and Turbo
Fitted the new turbo engine and installed the manifold. Bolted the turbo in to place to check for alignment.
Fitted the 102mm K&N filter directly on to the turbo to look at options. I can either leave the filter exposed or fit a 90 degree elbow in to the engine bay and fit the filter inside. Will leave the filter externally to start with, however there may be excessive induction noise that would be quitened down by relocating the filter.
Need to fit the internall waste gate actuator and adjust for the best fit. The turbo is also fitted with a 3 inch exhaust connection with a v band and clamp, this will provide a tidy connection to the link pipe and easily swappable for cat or decat options.
