When you get time to go back and clean things up, you end up doing justice to the seutp

They do their job :p Although EGT is only hooked up when needed for tuning... you never want the turbo to get over 900 degrees Celsius and should be hooked up before the turbo. If you let it sit there for a long time you risk the chance of the tip breaking off and going into the turbo, and we all know that end result.

Yes, the hot and cold IC pipes are on the same side.

The GT2860RS is a internally wastegated turbo.
