So... you seem to be answering a lot of questions about this Josh...

...is it yours?
Nope, not mine. You know I wouldn't have been able to hold this one under wraps. :chuckles:

You can easily clock the compressor housing to point downwards where it would route to the FMIC much easier.

Also, I think that the downpipe would actually fit better coming off of this side because you wouldn't have to make as drastic of a curve off of the turbo. I expect to have to flip my turbo around if I go with the LoveFab manifold I want. h:
