the turbo is a year old so theres gonna be some rust. Its costing me $250 to have the turbo, manifold, downpipe, and dump tube ceramic coated. The Reason the mani looks "wierd" is b/c its a custom made equal length. I test fitted it to my pnp'd head and it fits perfect. And BTW: I waited almost 4 months as well, but I think its well worth it.
