Taped off the bit a little over a 1/2in deep so not to drill or tap too deep

I forgot to grab a pic of the interior before closing it up. But I added a very small bead of High-Temp RTV to the VC side of the Jam nuts and to the entire contact point of the baffle plate and VC before tightening it all down

I got a little overzealous with the Hondabond at the end there and made a bit of a mess around the fittings but all in all I think it came out pretty good. Just used a rubber cap and a hose clamp for the OEM breather port and a PCV plug (you can get them at any autoparts store) for the OEM PCV hole.

This here is just showing the gains between 8psi (wastegate pressure) and 14.5psi (early pulls)

This was taken after a much needed breather setup, turbo blanket, and a few odds + ends were added. This is how the engine sits right now and how it was dynoed.

Since I deleted my cruise control I'm going to rewire those switches to serve a different purpose (stereo volume maybe? Or low-boost/high-boost settings in the ecu?) ;)

This is what you get when you rebuild a turbo but DON'T get it properly balanced. I'd say not even 10k miles and the bearings and seals were shot due to the excessive vibrations. And I'm sure the manifold, and back-pressure created by the recirc'd dumptube, didn't help matters AT ALL.
