          Thanks for the good feedback everyone. I wish I had my camera with me today. I made a pimp heat shield out of a stainless cooking pot for the turbine. I'll post pics of it tomorrow. All the fab work is pretty much done now, I just gotta clean and polish everything. I'm probably gonna rip the motor out on thursday and start prepping the engine bay. This build is moving right along, i'm gettin excited.

            Do you plan on stripping the car for track day? Make sure you get a good set of slicks

                            nice another topmount BP! i think if you grinded the welds down and got it coated it would look great
                            i assume your gonna do something about the dumptube touching the coolant tube. i would also put a blanket or something around the oil return line because its probably gonna be real close to those runners
                            looks great man, im jealous

                                ^its a civic eg half rad. Ebay flavor

                                *Little Update*

                                Here is some pics of the turbo **** all cleaned up.











                                Cooking pot heat shield ftw



                                Durafixed V-bands



                                Some of the other junk I have collected so far

                                I decided not to use the CDM HKS wastegate. Leaks at the wastegate suck ass. V-band ftw



                                box O bends



                                Tank for Water/Meth. Anybody thats lookin for a tank. These are solid as **** and they are only 20 bucks on e-bay



                                Misc fittings and oil lines



                                I thought these were pretty cool. 12pt hex head nut. To solve some of your clearance woes.





                                Hopefully my gasket kit is here tomorrow. If so, motor should be in by the weekend.
