Did you flip your turbo backwards? I wanna see a pic of it on the truck, the routing looks completely backwards from the pics you showed

Yeah that's what I'm looking at... That's not right.. Unless he was aiming for the middle of the hood. I think I'm just going to make one myself. Question though. I'm not sure the name of it but the last piece of the turbo closest to the cab that the down pipe connects to there is 4 bolts in that piece can you rotate that so the pipe comes out towards the fender?? Then FBI the rest of the pipe from there?

This should be interesting. Only way I can see that working is if the manifold is flipped, raising the turbo.

On my 78 chevy that we stuck a cummins into took a stock down pipe cut it up a bunch and made it fit via my arc welder now it barely sticks out the hood and I welded on a piece of 5" to the hood so it can open close without a big gap. Didn't take too long and since I am running a divorced passenger drop case was much simpler than trying to route around the t case.
