I just ordered up the new engine for my AE. It's about damn time. I have not done too much work on the thing, but here are a few pics of what I have done.

I bored out the back of the housing and I'm making a sleave to put in there, and I'm going to run a divorced internal wastegate. lol. I might try to rig up and external wastegate, still pondering the idea. I've just been screwing around with the turbo, I don't care how well it works I'm going to be going T04 this summer.



Oh, the paint is just rattle can; rust-oleum metalic paint. Thanks for the positive feedback.
