right, the driver's bank has the turbo manifold and the passenger a regular header w/ 2" pipe routed under the tranny like the normal y-pipe and up to the turbo manifold and into the GT-35R. Been done before and works phenominally.

What is half assed about it?

It looked like the turbo just sat on one header and the other cylinder bank wasn't attached.

My turbo setup is a log on the pass side where the turbo mounts, with a stock manifold on the driver side with a crossover pipe between....

Should work ok the way you've got it there, where are you putting the WG?

does your crossover pipe go in front of the motor to the log or like mine where the stock y-pipe routes?

as for your ? about the wastegate, look closely at my turbofold... near the turbo flange

Well mines not where the stock Y goes but it goes behind the motor, not in front. The stock driver side manifold is in its stock location.

I see the WG flange too, missed that, your pics kinda cut off the edges so we can't clearly see everything that's going on... Looks like it'll work out alright though.

well this kind of sucks, found out one of my head gaskets took a ****, so since im gonna have to have one of the heads pulled, im gonna pull both and get them ported up with a valve job and get some bigger valves put in. so turbo install gets pushed back a couple weeks...
