Custom turbo manifold out of sheet metal? Sure! Why not?

I ordered all the transmission parts last week. Pieced together a rebuild kit following Big Blue's clutch pack upgrades, RevMax Stage 3 Torque Converter, Transgo TFOD-Diesel Shift Kit, and Goerend Billet apply lever, strut, and anchor. This thing should be driveable in 2 weeks time.

I got a line on a new/used S400 turbo for an awesome deal. I might be working in the compound turbo setup sooner than I thought. Just need to order an external wastegate.
