Its about TIME! many pics
I would route my coolant hose away from the manifold. Just make a metal hardline that routes it away from the extreme heat that manifold WILL make!

Looks good...
I dont really like the charge pipe that sits right next to the downpipe. Even with the downpipe rapped, there's going to quite a bit of heat transfer into the boost tube. Just a lit constructive feed back for you

He will find out once its tuned, the manifold paired with the larger bore turned the plugs white just putting around the block, obviously not a safe combination. Derron says the turbo spools up on idle though
and it never used to(smaller turbo, w/smaller bore)!
For installation, Derron said it was a PITA, because the turbo pretty much sat on the tranny mount. This has since been corrected with the base jig(moved the turbo up an inch, and to the drivers side a weee bit), and there will be no cutting involved in the future. Derron was more or less a "tester" if you will
The purpose of this manifold is the ability to run AC w/minimal modifications, and make the most power possible because of a full 3 inch DP(maybe 4", like some people are doing already).
