Are you referencing the manifold or compressor housing?

What size wastegate are you currently running? I am curious if that 180* bend after the wastegate is causing some of the boost creep. Are you basing the 200hp difference from airflow rates? The downpipe looks really nice btw, any room at all for a full 5" exhaust?

I have a 50mm jgs right now... and yes the 200hp is based on the airflow in the engine. No way a full 5" will fit without going under all the crossmembers. We had to crush a 4" to get it to fit between the frame and body.
