[QUOTE=rx820bna;1875985]Looks good, but why a "square" design and not round using u-bends? Round will flow better than square.
many reasons.. main one being that the intake ports on the rotor housing are rectangular shaped. round one will cause lot of turbulence at the entry.

You do! Yeh right.
I feel sorry for the person that have to make the jig for your manifold in the rx-8.
I was doing the same thing today with the same size turbo and now I think I have to get back surgery. I use to think that the rx-7 motor was bad on the back but after just a couple of minutes trial fitting this huge turbo, the rx-8 is the sure back breaker now.
