I often wonder about set-ups like yours. My turbo mount is on the head, but you've mounted it to the chassis. Wouldn't there be issues with the turbo mount breaking when the motor twists under hard acceleration? I don't see any flex joints. Are you running solid motor mounts? BTW, I'm not trying to knock your work(looks great  ), but I just noticed that and was curious.

BTW, I'm not trying to knock your work(looks great  ), but I just noticed that and was curious. I didnt think you were knocking my build, and actualy grateful that you would look for potential problems. I basied my buld off of so many that i have seen on here, like "onjacks", and pumkinhead" besides a few others, they have there turbo frame mounted. I actualy do have solid motor mounts and the only urithane mount is the trans mount, no flex joints of any kind, I hope that I was thinking correctly on not having any flex joints.

The stress reliever that always runs

Would you mind taking a few more pics or different angles of your downpipe and muffler setup, mine is just about to get put together. Similar setup with an S480.

I'm not sure if you're concerned with sactioning body rules or tech being enforced, but exhaust has to exit behind the front tire in most orgs so as to not fog the beams.
