It's starting to take shape.
You can see the custom stainless heat shield over the Turbine side of the turbo that is also ceramic coated.
The Feed line, water lines and drain line are Teflon inner and stainless steel braided line. All the ends are crimped to prevent future leaks. The hose is rated to 400F and 250 psi burst.
This kinf of feed and drain will be now standard on LHT Turbo builds.



Stainless steel Drain line.
