    Even with my very small exhaust housing I don't get measurable boost at idle.

    For starters, what boost guage do you have and where is it connected (I know I have seen/driven your awesome landy, but memory is like the proverbial these days).

    If you were over in WA I could lend you one of the many calibrated manometers we have in the lab... You could try making up your own H2O manometer from a piece of plywood and some plastic tube.

    That might indicate the issue. Those use a MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor, so some form of calibration is needed to convert from absolute to gauge pressure.

    I would have put it in the manifold but the PO of the turbo already had tapped a hole.

    Hi.
    Are you sure that clamping the exhaust rigid to the chassic is a good idea?
    I would of thought flexable mounts would be better.
    Jim,

    See in the first pic there is a bit of flexible in there. The dump pipe can still move.
