Had a buddy smooth and sandblast the compressor covers to prep for some powdercoat, looks kinda cool.


Probably going to do a textured black then a dusting of copper on top to see what that looks like.

Just got the SS piping to redo the wastegates last night. Gonna be tough to fit, especially on the driver side.

If it's good enough for every 300hp Honda in town, it's good enough for this!

Got the driver side new wastegate done, was actually easier to do the dump pipe than I thought it would be. Been a while since I did stainless TIG so its not the prettiest but itll hold and its all backpurged and all of that. Tomorrows project is the passenger side.

Thought about just doing this and letting the turbos eat.

2.5" pipe is huge haha

All in there, barely fits to clear the radiator but has clearance to everything

dump pipe fits quite nicely with just a 90 and 60 degree piece
