Default A&A Twin Turbo- It's up and running

We've just been chipping away a little at a time but we've got it up and running. Of course it's pouring rain and I can't even drive it, but it looks cool.
I have turbo blankets and all kinds of heat wrap to go on it. We've moved everything so there's not much that's even close to the hot parts.
The 2006 hood has a light fixture and the hood liner contours around it. It touched the pipe, leaving the black mark on the wastegate pipe. I'll put on a 2007 hood liner and that should fix that issue.
We'll see what else starts to melt, if anything, next week.

This build exhibits an appropriate level of Tark.

Lot's of heat under there. Are you using a different hood to remove some of it? I would think the wiring at plastic under there would take quite a beating otherwise?
