TIG welding like that is a Pagan Art. Love to see that level of work.

I know that is super hard to make but is all that crazy snaking actually helping or is it just jacking off?

It's probably helping....

Here it is mocked up in the car.

Yes, that IS how the turbos are supposed to be routed in this case. 3 wastegates, two huge turbos set up in compound style.

Obviously not.... those are wastegates, not BOVs.

I think I would have used reverse and whole lot of throttle if I saw that coming toward me.
