the turbo in the pictures is a GT3040R -
yes ,the wastegate will be very similar to the peak boost sr manifold
the way the hotpipe and exhaust runner are routed on our cars is very similar to that, and we haven't had any problems with it, dan. some fire sleeving would always fix it though.
and looking at those pics we could easily clock the turbo a little bit more towards the driver's side without a problem.
