Looks like you screwed up the gasket surface on the twin scroll portion of the manifold.

WTF bit did you use to do the porting anyway? You f'd/up the outer edges of the entrance to the turbine inlet area. That outer, lead-in edge should always be left for last.

yeah got a little exciting there with the inlet edge, and i did do that last BUT i dont think it will make a difference anyways beause that part will have the gasket on top.

I just hope the gasket seals man. That gasket surface should always be left flat. I think you should have taken some harder looks at professional port jobs and figure out is beneficial to remove material. You might have done more harm than good on this.

I don't think that gasket will seat properly. Hopefully it does, but it would be a shame after all that work if it leaked and you had to swap it all out... sorry to see that, but I am hoping it works for you!

Sorry man, but you definitely did more harm than good. Your gasket isn't going to seal and you're going to have a lot of additional turbulence. I wouldn't bother putting that on your car and just pick up another core to start fresh on and learn from your past mistakes.
