Yea i said it u should know that the best handling performance comes from having all your weight low to the ground. Im sure its not going to make a noticeable difference its just how i wanted to do it and the wastegate stuck out all crazy high. We did consider a top mount it was just not right. Ill powder coat it one day lol Here r some new pics.

You're talking about moving MAYBE a hundred pounds 5 inches. You're never going to feel that. Saying you went bottom mount for lower cg is absolutely ridiculous...

Exactly... But regardless, it looks good. Only possible issue is the 1-2, 3-4 pairing.

Nice fab work! Yeah, it's too bad about the pairings, but it'll work just fine. It's not going to work any worse than a single scroll. I expect to see low 300's on that turbo. IIRC, it's like a slightly bigger T28. That outlet is nuts!

not to mention just saying "fuck it" on connecting the correct cylinders, and then trying to sound like a super engineer about a lower cg.

Jebus! A quick search of the internets says you're right. Maybe I'm thinking of older Evo turbos. Actually, the 6.5 TME turbo that everyone want for anti-lag is the one I'm thinking of. DSG went to great pains to use this turbo and only made about 320whp. I didn't know the EVO9 turbos were that much bigger. In that case, it's really going to come down to supporting mods. A set of small cams and you should see mid-high 300's.
