Very much like that Chris, but with a silicone reducer straight off the turbo, then an alloy bend I'm thinking to meet up with top part of a silicone TIP I have.
Where's your DV and N75 port?

Dump valve is that pipe off the middle of the pipe.
No N75 port as the spare port is venting to atmosphere.
Depending on turbo, there isnt much space near the linkages....hence I had to do a 2 step reduction from 45-63mm then 63-76mm

My linkages are probably in a slightly different positioning to yours, mines in a mk2 shell.
The main thing I'm trying to do is move the part that runs vertically away from the compressor housing to allow more room for IC piping.

Any more news on this pipe ??
I'm considering doing something similar and like the idea of the ally converter but don't have a local machine shop
So I guess the best way is to use a reducer from turbo up to a large size ally pipe
I'm nearly done installing my 20v into my mk2
