I think you'll need to tweak that drain. It looks like the bung in the oil pan is in the right place but they don't line up at all and the drain pipe off the turbo doesn't look like it has as much of a bend in it as it should. It looks like it's 90' from the drain. I'm the only one I know of who had issues but I could never get my TTIX kit to drain well and converted to a scavenge pump.

that won't be the actual angle of everything. the manifold isn't tightened all the way to the heads because that starter in that pic is the stock one that won't fit. They were just checking clearance on stuff. I'll snap some pics after everything is in its final resting place

Wanted to give a quick update. Lethal finished up the tune and we stopped at 80% duty cycle on the wastegate for now which resulted in 1160whp/1222tq on a very conservative tune. A/F around 10.8 (e85) and about 18* timing. Car idles, runs, and drives awesome! Took an 2 hour drive to Austin Saturday and Sunday and car ran flawlessly. Very happy with the end result. The Dyno Video for a little lower boost pull is here:

Look forward to getting this thing dialed in for TX2K and TI

I saw the pictures also, Waiting for details. The pictures look pretty bad. A least Joe is ok. Time to upgrade.
Wishing you the best-Joe. Everyone else needs to be safe, It is pretty slick out there.
