Brett - please post more pictures of the installation and piping after the new version is installed. Just scrolled through the thread again and see the 2" 90d elbow off the turbo outlet but can't tell if the next pipe stays at 2" or transitions to 2.5" before increasing to 3" at the IC.
Took some effort but got there eventually. Wheel well seems cooler after this extra shielding
Manifold also shielded ... for heat management .
Turbo in wheel well before exit coupler fitted
Underneath showing how tight it is before WG pipe fitted. Intake pipe was a real mission to make as you can see from all the welds.

seems right in line with the expectation; the 3582 is bigger/heavier/more MOI, less efficient, and the 0.83 housing for it flows more than the G30 0.83 housing.
thanks for posting those pics, very interesting.
that heat shielding link didn’t provide much info, here it is from another site:
With a unique corrugated construction, aluminized steel outer shell and thermal silicate wool core, Permaseal MLS-R thermal heat shield offers a high temperature thermal barrier for automotive and industrial applications.
While providing exceptional operating rigidity, the heat shield is a light-weight and easily workable for complex forming and shaping. Common shielding applications include turbo-chargers, exhaust pipes, manifolds, and protecting rubber or heat sensitive components.
While offering am excellent thermal barrier, the heat shielding provides the added benefit of sound attenuation.

- Finished Product Thickness: 4.45mm
- High Temperature Thermal Barrier
- Engine Bay Temps 800-900C
- Noise Dampening
- Light-Weight
- Easily Cut & formed

- added additional shielding, over the entire saddle, under the trans tunnel aluminum protector
- run a turbine cover
- and DP heat wrap
Btw: the trans tunnel heat shielding also resolved the heating of the cup holders as well.

I had my old Greddy manifold ceramic coated ..... it worked ok for a while but then started flaking off after a few years. It's very prone to mechanical damage.

Just finished retuning after swapping injectors from:
brown/uncapped yellow/uncapped yellow (650/850/850)
to all series 2
Green/brown/brown (500/650/650)
Was able to drop idle from 1000 down to 900 and get probably the smoothest idle I've ever had . Didn't notice any other improvements but I suspect fuel economy will be even better than it already was and having much better spray patterns now has to offer some small gains in detonation resistance and overall power at same boost settings.

Wouldn’t have any issue at all with Injector Dynamics injectors, at least on the primary. You have to find the old long body style to fit in the primary holes though. The ID1000’s will idle as low as you want.

yes, people on here have already used them on the Renesis primary
the people at ID are well familiar with the Renesis flow requirement, you’d don’t seem to be aware of the technology for low flow development on them
but at the risk of talking to the hand again, I’ll gladly send you a pair to try and confirm for yourself
edit: forgot I actually have some ID725 long bodies to send. You definitely won’t have any issue at all with them.

I didn’t fully get it either early on, but back when I was intending to plug the primaries and idle off the P2s instead they told me the 1350s would be ok for that.
However, ended up getting an S2 intake manifold since then and will use the long bodies for Pri instead with a pair of Sec for a 4-injector system. Of course you can program all that in the Adaptronic Modular ecu too as far as flow balancing the fuel goes for better distribution wrt Pri vs Sec. I wanted the APV position sensor indication on the S2 manifold mostly though.

I've been at the mercy of the casters (now using two separate companies) and between covid lockdowns and a huge surge in demand for just about everything, It's taking way longer than I anticipated. The economy here has gone crazy because no-one is traveling overseas so they are all spending their money internally.
There should be at least further five get made this month with most of those guys being on here so hopefully there will be some build threads soon.
