Well instead of running the wastegate into the downpipe I decided to just run it out the fender as well.

Well no turning back now, got the hole in the fender. Made a mock up exhaust ring, gonna have a buddy of mine make one on his CNC machine to the final deminsions. Couple more welds and the hotside is ready for the coaters. Hopefully in a couple months it will be time for first start.

Are you going to have the wastegate merge into it before the fender or cut another hole? That looks scary as **** by the way

Thanks, I have decided to merge it into the downpipe right behind the fender. I think one hole is enough...haha

The scary part was cutting the hole....
