Additional photos below with some key plumbing in place. Seeing it in person usually results in some issues and opportunities to show up…but nothing yet. Still feels good.

The very tight fit for the compressor exit hose is unfortunate but this was clear and CAD and moving the turbo forward isn't an option (the wheel is in the way) and moving the turbo aft would require major frame cutting. Pulling the coil off will be annoying but it works. I'd say it's still 50% easier than working on a modern car...

Insulating the turbine housing is something I’m thinking about. It’s going to be quite close to the chassis and engine tin. I’d rather not use a turbo blanket.
