UPDATE:
The new top mount setup requires clearance for the IC pipe so I had to fabricate a new front motor mount and bar. I decided to approach it differently than what I had seen by placing the isolation mounts at the body. This left me a lot of room between the header and front bar for the IC pipe.

FYI with a ams t3 manifold, .63 housing and gt3076r. I too was surging like a **** at part throttle and high throttle below 4-5krpm. But I use a tps based signal to trigger my boost solenoid to close the bottom port. 3.5V works great for me.

UPDATE:
I was able to finish the lower IC pipe today so one more thing completed. I do have to order more thermal wrap to protect it from the exhaust. The mockup turbo is actually the GTX3582r because it wanted some fresh air after sitting on my shelf this past year.
I also started the downpipe and made decent progress. I should have the downpipe done in a few days.

I am putting one after the downpipe.
I was able to finish all the downpipe today including mounts, PVC evacuation and remaining 02 sensor bung.
I was also able to make the new radiator mounts for the Mirage radiator. I ordered a piece of 1/4" 6061 plate and reused the stock rubber mounts. Once they are powder coated they will look great.

OK, 3.5" downpipe done and permanently installed.
I was able to finish a critical part of the build, which was the turbo drain line. I ended up hybridizing the stock turbo drain with some 3/4" SS tubing. First time to actually purge a part since I did not have a way to clean off the Solar Flux B and did not want it in my oil.

How do you weld the v band without warping the flange. My last v band attempt failed miserably
I want to divide my v band into 1/4's so I can have 4 individual feed tubes for my anti lag set up. I'm thinking water jetting a plug with 4 holes in it to fit inside of the flange is my best bet .
Does the bottom of the mirage radiator line up?
