Give us some specs on the turbo.

TO4E housing, .56 trim compressor wheel, GT30 dual ball bearing center section, GT30 turbine wheel (very close to a t3 stage III), ported 7cm exhaust housing, external gate.

Are you going to use any kind of heat shield or header wrap, or are you not going to worry about it?

Know what the SFP manifold version runs $ or have a pic?

I've seen a few other threads debating the internal or extrernal venting of the O2 dump:

internal pros: It's Legal, less noise
external pros: couple more HPs (more if exaust more restrictive), "sounds bad ass".

I'm entertaining the internal route so am interested to hear any real-world feedback on it.

We have T3 SFP maniflods in stock flanged for 35mm w/g for $475. These are our own custom design that hold the turbo is the propper place. They also hold the w/g in the propper place so it clears all your under hood stuff. We also have all the other little parts you need.

There are pros & cons to doing it. Haven't decided yet.

Better boost control (more stable), especially on larger turbos. The biggest flappers I've seen on internals is 39mm. With an external vavle you can get a 35mm, 40mm, 45mm, 50mm & 55mm.

Just to let you guys know, this set-up went 12.17 @ 115.4 mph on 22psi in the middle of the day (70-80deg f). I still have some tuning to do on it. It will get into the 11's soon. Also to let you know, my car weighs in at a whopping 3400lbs without me in it (add 180lbs).
