Must be the up pipe from the exhaust and the small pipe coming off is the waste gate?

Yes. The piece above it is the flange piece the turbo will sit on.

Looks similar to what I'm thinking about doing. I've figured with the idea of twins and dumping the exhaust out like yours or just a larger single.

Looking forward to seeing your results.

Doing some good work.

We are gonna see if we can fab up a bracket for the sway bar as I want to keep it on for daily driving. Here's a pic of the oil relocation housing. I believe the fittings are 1/2''. Eventually I want to convert the oil in/out lines that go to the block to braided lines. Anyone know what the AN conversion fittings would be for that?

AN-8 is 1/2 inch but I would run AN-10 lines, if it were me.

Is that possible and still use the same size thread fittings to fit the housing and adapter plate? Sorry I'm new to all this so it's all a learning process

You can get different adapters for the AN-10 line. The female section of you oil setup is most likely 1/2 or 3/8 inch NPT pipe threads. If they are 1/2 then just use something like this http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-220047b/overview/ for your lines. If they are 3/8 then this would work http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-220046b/overview/

I would bite the bullet and spend the money for the AN setup. I would never trust my engine to push on, or hose clamp, rubber hose for high pressure oil lines.

Okay thanks so I would use those AN to NPT Adapter Fittings to screw into the filter housing and adapter plate then us -10 AN female fittings on the hose to screw into the adapter fittings?

Anyone have clearance issues with aftermarket radiators? And if so, any way to improvise?
