i had mine like this on a single 60mm wastegate log manifold setup and worked pretty well for street use with my manual boost controller

Now i have 2-50mm wastegates, one mounted on the cross over and one right off the log manifold using a ams1000 to control the boost

Why is a psi sensor in the top port of the log gate?

That reads the psi behind the gate for the AMS1000 boost controller.... so when i put x psi of co2 behind the gate it will run x#'s of boost.... it actually has a T where co2 goes into the same fitting but this picture dosent show it

Looks like you are missing a few bolts in the 80e

I'm cutting out as much weight as I can. Actually last year I ran the truck without that dust cover. I got one and just put it in place for the crossover pipe. The engine is just bolted in place no sensors are installed. Hopefully this week ibcan tackle that stuff. I'm getting itchy to start it up.
