Got the dump, turbo and manifold out eventually. Stripped a few nuts and bolts but got them out after heating them and using a smaller socket. Looks like this at the moment Should look something like this soon Plan is to heat wrap the dump and manifold and use turbo beanie to keep temps down. As for the water line I have ordered some 1/2" to -8 hard line adaptors with -8 teflon braid and hose ends to suit. I haven't seen any pics of anyone using the hard line adapters for the water line so hopefully it all goes together. Also ordered a stud kit for the manifold, turbo and dump. If there is anything else I should be looking at to get it all together any input is appreciated. Edited 17/04/16 05:28 AM by OZYWALKER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holds more through corners and doesn't tramp. One thing to keep in mind is I have it set as high as it goes. You'd have to order taller shocks to get any more height out of it.

I dont have any problem with tramp but I dont have much trust in the rear end for traction. Looks like a good setup, got me interested in it. Just need to weigh up cost vs gain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That rear end setup would be my first mod if I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
