  • Nice setup really like the manifold and wastegates!! wish i would have just went all out on a manifold setup, I ported a stock one with and external 44mm gate on it and running a Holset. That thing is gonna spool so quick when your done!

        Twin scroll to vent the gases properly.
        Traction is optional, so are zipties

            Not overkill, you can get boost creep with poor designed manifold/ wastegate setups. Its not just for high boost, but all ranges. This will also give ken better/faster spool on his turbo. It really is the new age turbo side of things.

            • Interesting. I get boost creep with stock manifold stock turbo and divided dump pipe. I'm looking into wide bellmouth dump pipe. Makes sense now.

              • Thanks for all the support guys! I just got back from a 35 day stint in Fort McMurray (with only one day off). I probably won't have time to work on babyzilla until July-August. I just ordered my new .61 A/R Ni-Resist divided turbine housing.

                For most people my entire setup would be considered overkill, no one "needs" performance modifications. Unlike most of the skyline enthusiasts, I won't sell my car....I will be buried with it lol. I'm going to build it to responsive perfection, no exceptions.
