did you make the wastegate extension tube that brought the gate out from under the manifold?
if you did could you make me an exact copy?

Yeah I could probably do that. Its about $80-90 in Material if you want it Stainless like this one and about $100 to make it.

Little Update:

Car is running now, minus intercooler and pipes. Got to drive the car around the Parking lot a bit which is the first time Ive ever driven the car in the 2.5 years that Ive had it. The suspension is super soft like a Cadillac.

The Weldon pump seems to work awsome, and not too loud. First I tried using the factory return line to get the fuel back to the tank and pressure wouldnt drop below 60 psi. Then I tried the factory feed line as the return and it dropped to about 55psi. The I added a T and used both the feed and the return line and now I can run it as low as 35psi. Holy shit this pump can flow.

I think Ive spent more time making this intercooler fit than I did on anything else on the car.

Beautiful work! Best thing I've seen since I did mine a while back. You are ok in my book Trevor, haha.

That really is awesome, Trev. I'm planning to do my FMIC the same way. It's really the only way to pull it off on the stock bumper. Mad props to you, my man.

Beautiful work Trev. Question though. You put all that work into the intercooler and installed it at such an angle as to fit the stock front bumpercover, is it really going to see enough airflow? I can only see half of it getting clear air?

Post subject:  Re: My Mirage project log
You cant really tell from that angle but the bumper is cut almost flush with the front and you can see the entire intercooler if you are looking up. The front lip of the car should push enough air right into the intercooler.

The car looks great Trev, very nice fabrication work, and in a black CSM to boot. What else is left for this thing to hit the track?
