Wastegate dent.....the nefarious hood nipple....what to do?
Hey guys...I'm sure many of you are dealing with the same problem as me...but I'm also sure that many of you have found viable solutions. Anybody thats got any good ideas on dealing with the hood dent created by a custom turbo install...please post em along with pictures if you got em. I'd be willing to bet that many people would benefit from this post, so please post any info you got. I've already started working on a custom scoop that I'll post pics of when I'm finished.

Get a wastegate elbow, its like 35 bucks...best solution I found...Then you need to either run an open dumptube, or fabricate a new one

I got an elbow....but after the dent was made. I'm talkin about modifications to the hood itself...like custom scoops/holes/bodywork....whatever.
