youve got to build a lightweight crossmemeber. hard to tell from the pics, looks like you might have already cut it up and put plate on the bottom of it.
like the exhaust.

Haha ya i know how it is! Im needing a secondary wastegate and another turbo blanket so ill be down for a bit untill i can sell some stuff i have laying around.... I need to go subscribe to your build to keep me up to date. I have had the AMS 1000 hooked up for a bit with CO2 but havent been able to use it cause overboosting issues cant wait to get it all sorted out. Thanks for the Pic!!

You are so right and i have been wanting to do it lol but 22#'s of uncontrolled boost is wicked and i really dont know how high it will go in the upper rpm range!

22lbs of boost how much hp does that apriximate to? Just the boost alone600-800? You can't controll the truck with it just doing what it wants?

Heres a pic of the second 50mm JGS wastegate, now i have full control over boost with the AMS1000 and CO2, went for a test spin and the new turbo on 10#'s feels like the old turbo on 15#'s!! Didnt get to run this weekend cause the turbo seems to be burning oil out the exhaust housing so ima try some different restrictors... Heres a couple pics of the wastegate setup and my polish job on the 91mm
