Re: Let's see your engine bays!!
I took the ebay header, made all the welds thicker, welded another pipe on for the wastegate, cut the t25 flange off and welded the t3 on. And i hate to say it but its a civic radiator lol couldn't fit the long mx3 one in due to it interfering with the turbocharger.

It's a 57 trim T3/T4 .60 cold side .48 hotside. i'm not sure what vB means lol, but these are the first pictures i've posted of the bay so i'd assume it was probably someone else.
