Sorry I haven't been on much lately guys...I think I mentioned that I got struck by a car while riding my 10 speed across a sidewalk? Anyway, that caused me some serious issues for several months, but all is getting much better now...
Plus, been exceptionally busy with career and family, so, I put the Lexus aside...For a few months.
Gotta rebuild the DP, and the MP. Reason is the configuration of the DP now simply will not allow me enough room to clear components within the engine bay...Fans, etc. So, without having to rebuild the whole plumbing set up, I am rebuilding the DP and the MP out of lots of expensive oval tubing. The distance between the two turbine flanges is only 8,9 inches, so I am having them merge right out of the turbos, then once past the collector, the 2 three inch pipes exiting the turbos will be welded onto an oval 4" tube. The mid pipe will also be oval tubing so i can get more flow back to where the exhausts split off.
