just giving you a warning....that manifold has been known to crack under a moderately short amount of time. Keep an eye on the wastegate flange area and the turbine flange area.

And your wastegate appears that it is on backwards.

make sure you run an oil restrictor with that turbo as well. unless you want to replace the seals alot. ebay turbos dont like the oil pressure the motor puts out
i may not be "logical" but at least i can change my oil...

good start, as stated there are a few things you might want to watch for.

1. That manifold sucks i would look into upgrading with in the next year or so. google lovefab

2. Wastegate is on wrong

3. Keep an eye on the turbo, check it about once a month for shaft play and other signs of wear

4. oil restrictor

5. Depending on the trim of the turbo it might not be big enough to efficentaly work on the B16. I always read(I am not a turbo expert and I am sure the experts will correct me if worng) that nothing smaller than a 60 trim T3 for a B.

alright time to start over, those ebay parts are going to give you headaches later on, i would've looked for quality used parts and pieced a kit together
