If the lines aren't hooked up, this should only take a few minutes and would be a MONSTER favor to all of us waiting to see how this will fit but want to keep the OEM manifold.
PLEASE!?!?!?!?????
EDIT:
BONUS points if you could post pics of a measurement (ruler or tape measure) from the wastegate flange to the nearest obstruction!!!!!! (with turbo on OEM exhaust mani)

I will definately get a pic for you guys with the measureing tape but i think im just going to purchase 2 V band flanges and make a 90* angle and then put it on it should work fine then, i was about to give up and get a Mazworks T3 manifold and a .82 hotside and try to get around the 460 range with E-85 and decent timing i think its possiable would prolly suite the Tomei 270's better also.
About the OEM manifold ill contact my buddy and see if he can get a mock up with my stock manifold. I'm actually thinking about selling the megan manifold with the EWG V44 housing i dont really have the time to have something made for the wastegate
