Good call, that's hands down the best way to do it. I won't mess with that header wrap anymore. While you're at it though, do the down pipe and turbine housing. Trust me, makes a huge difference on bay temps. Awesome build btw, keep at it!

OMG! And some people run without BOV's! Their engines will surely explode!

Throttle plate closes, charge air bounces back, and immediately dumps out the BOV. Makes sense to me.

A bov has nothing to do with engines blowing up, its to keep turbos from surging, which can lead to them failing prematurely . There has been some speculation that a bov closer to the tb is better, but ive had them near the turbo and near the tb with no noticible difference. i prefer hot side piping, though thats just preference.


also, air doesent bounce.

Sick stuff. What I do hate, is the ugly water neck routing on the jz motors. I would cut off the bend and weld a new piece going straight to the radiator. Of course you'll then have to modifie the radiator, but at least it will look a lot cleaner.
