Yah it looks really neat, very OEM. Just make sure it doesnt hit anything under load last thing you want is a broken oil line under load.

Depends exactly what you want. This is a VERY complete setup, everything from providing the turbo, to installing it, oil lines, air intake, full exhaust and all.

Dann, not sure I'd its just the photos. But some of the Weeks look like they might be a bit undercut. Certainly neat though.

Have you used mig before? Of so how did you find tig in comparison? I imagine set up its a but trickier.
