I had one a long time ago and with the elbow, it would dent the hood with a tial wastegate. I would wrap the lines and keep it where it is.

WRAP it up....get some reflective heat wrap, regular header wrap will probably work but that would just be ugly . worked on all my buddies cars here in FL with a/c

who still uses the drag manifold. Im trying to get rid of mine but if I cant I might have to make anouther hole in my 5bolt flange and block off the wastegate port. Im not trying to risk boost spiking.
