it won't fit. obx and the wastegate adapter with the turbo pushes it to far out and it g into the radiotor. i am using an obx. i cut a hole over port one and weld the flange that comes with the wastegate. mine is still sitting in my garage

and it probaby is smaller, im not going for a whole lot of power here. Its a garrett t3 .48 turbine .42 compressor from a saab

You aren't going to need to worry about the intercooler getting cold air. It's now blocking your radiator. I would worry about directing air to it. Other than that, it's looking pretty good man. Keep with the updating.

its a tube & fin so it shouldnt block airflow too much, plus the car runs really cold all the time

please beef up the weld on the bung!
I can see some porosity too, which is bad. It can, and likely will leak through the porosity. Just use a dremel and clean it up, and hit it again with thicker filler and slightly more amps, and drag the puddle up the pipe and down into the pan.
I hope thats a good explanation.

still no replies Jason, yet the frog needs halp, so perhaps welding better may or may not work

I'm kinda amazed you were able to weld to that tinfoil the manifold is made out of...haha
Looks good though, glad to see a car you've had for so long finally getting some good bits.
