Then I prepped the heads with minimal porting to fit to the 2.5L manifolds. This required about 3 hours of hand porting the oval into a sort of figure 8 inlet that matched the 2.5L LIM. Then I used JB weld with some prep work to create a little bit of a material so that the LIM would match the head better. Then I cut off the tabs on the LIM gaskets and used silcone to seal it in place on the head.



Hey tom/demon I'm still confused on the injector placement and the 'JB welding' that needs to take place. Do you utilize the 2.5 fuel rail?

For the exhaust I ran a gutted 2.5L rear exhaust manifold and the modified escape front manifold. THe front manifold had the cat section cut off and a piece of pipe with a turn going the other way was welded onto it. All upper and lower O2 sensors were retained.
Next I made a crossover pipe based upon all the knowledge I had gained from the previous turbo project.
The downpipe that I made was retained from the last turbo setup.




The crossover pipe Swazo and you are offering on GB does this include stuff to make the front manifold work and a downpipe? A picture would be worth a 1000 words here

Nice work my friend, and IIRC your heading East good luck and be safe!
