It’s blowing my mind that network of madness will all fit neatly tucked behind the bumper cover. It’s like a mechanical art installation.

I saw him years ago at the Tall Pines rally. Amazing driver.We lost a legend yesterday. R.I.P. Ken Block View attachment 86020
That looks really good.Front turbo inlet pipe is done. More or less. Still needs wastegate and o2 sensor. Going to do pre turbo o2 sensor first and see if that’s fine.

At the very least all the exhaust will get wrapped. I’d like to get them all coated in Jet Hot or a similar coating AND wrapped. I wish I just polish them I love the shiny stainless and tig welds, kind of stinks to cover it all up but…not sure if just a coating would suffice. It’s really no closer than OEM downpipes I think thoughGood work Andrew! Do you think you might have to wrap the exhaust ? It looks very close to where the oil filter will be.
I had wrap on a turbo/header on my old SVO. It was fine once I learned to never go to a drive thru car wash or drive in the rain. I suspect he probably won't do those things in this build.Wrapping works pretty well for heat. Is there any issue with holding moisture in non-arid environments? I hear rumblings about it every now and then but not sure if that is actually an issue.
Yeah I’ve read it can lead corrosion but not so much with stainless steel. Like @Majestic said, it won’t be driven in the rain or go through the car wash. I deleted the wipers and wiper motor/windshield washer tank. It might get rained on perhaps one day but not driven in it.Wrapping works pretty well for heat.

Great job Andrew. Also Rain X .....just in case.Yeah I’ve read it can lead corrosion but not so much with stainless steel.

Sweet.Progress. Manifolds to turbo pipes done. The meat of it anyway. All the sensors and stuff will be added at the end. Now is time for wastegates and turbo outlets through the fenders.
