Is the final section of the up-pipe divided?

So that's 92ss satinsvoice's car?
Cool! Looks like a pretty nice setup.
I like your wastegate and adapter setup. That's cool. A twinscroll GT3076 would be a really nice turbo.

Its a friend of mine here in MN. He doesn't post, but lurks once and a while. Of course he had to wait until he rode in my car before he decided on a turbo.
I'm curious how the .78 exhaust housing w/ the twin scroll works out. Next summer I want to get a set of those heads, and a larger snail may be in order.

The twin scroll won't work properly, as you don't have the correct cylinders paired to achieve the alternating twin scroll effect...

It's set up correctly. What makes you say it isn't?

it will work. even if its not paired correctly it stil has benifit. FAT in az did a "improper pair" using the cast iron and it still has a great benifit for the 40r their using

Derek said its paired back-two, front-two, as it should be, IIRC. His cell phone pics don't really tell all.
Either way, this thing should rip with those heads. He just needs a tranny. He's looking for a roasted auto tranny out of a turbo car BTW. I never realised the auto in the turbo car is beefier than NA cars. Since he rebuilds autos for a living, he's capable of making hold up a little better.

I have a turbo auto that's been sitting outside for a while. Perfect for a rebuild...

It runs now. Derek said those 2.5 DOHC heads really come alive at 4500rpm. He needs a standalone bad. The MAF translater Pro, although nice, limits him to the factory redline.
15psi at 36-3800 rpm is not to shabby for a 3076R and comp ratio in the low-mid 7's
