Not to knock you but that wastgate placment is horrible. That's probably how you blew it. I would really advise changing that manifold. I would make a new one with the wastegate getting all the gases from all cylinders. Dead in the middle. And get hondata to get a real tune out of it.

Thats why I thank god I have hondata. I had a wastegate line come off and hondata shut my boost off at around 18psi. Happened to me twice so far.

I use the jdm zipties, no lines falling off here

Simple mistakes can be costly, good luck on the new setup and yeah get a new manifold

Good job on the manny. I for one know how hard it is to do something like that. I'd suggest getting a real air filter over your turbo intake. Experience has taught me that its very easy to bend/crack turbo blades. Mess up their alignment or structure and things get nasty at 150,000 rpm's. My friends motor had some compressor blades for lunch one day.
