Christmas came early!!!
That pic is worth more than a few thousand words
Recommend confirming Turbo WasteGates crack at exactly same pressure before re-installing engine. A quick check that will ensure optimum throttle response.
Are you doing the work yourself or did you find a trusted shop?

Re: Just got the goodies!
That's why I had my stock mani's ceramic coated locally at National Coatings for $300, same coating that VAST uses and same day turn around too. VAST was out of stock and needed 3 weeks to ship and I couldn't wait that long.
While your waiting, you could plug all holes and smooth out insides of the Turbo's aluminum intake castings... you don't need "port and polish" quality but any smoothing work is better than the very rough castings as shipped. Use caution and don't get any dirt in there.
