Message: [QUOTE="TARM, post: 664960, member: 578"] Yeh guy it was just some fun poking. Its SOP on this forum to give jabs especially when something like that is said. LOL Trust me I have been all kinds of stupid over the years. LOL You got nothing on me. But once you build this pedestal you will be one up on me. I have never bothered to build one myself. But I think if you take your time and do some careful mockups it will turn out OK. You make bugger it up here ot there and have to redo it but thats all part of learning IMO. Just remember to check for the clearance and fitting of the downpipe as well as cowl and intake tubing. I had one kit the angle was just slightly off and I had to dent the downpipe a small bit as it touched to lower corner of the head. Just little things like that is all I can offer you up. I can say whats nice about the all in one pedestal that includes the pick and return is its all nice and compact a nd in one place. The down side is if it leaks you have to pull the turbo etc almost all the time. If you do the valley port drain you can get to it real easy and its not such a short piece of tube to manipulate. Be sure to put bellows on the uppipes so they do not wear loose and leak. If you have plans for waste gate maybe work that into your uppipes now and get it all fitted at the same time. There are a number of guys on here that have done there own that can offer way better advice than me. Do some searches and look for those that built there own and maybe PM them. [/QUOTE]
