Mine cracked. All I did was cut some aluminum sheet, about 0.187" thick, and welded it to the bottom. Made some cut outs for a socket to tighten the nuts and it's been totally solid since.

So after 11 weeks, the machine shop was holding onto my parts and made 0 progress on anything. Finally pulled everything out of there. They basically wasted 11 weeks of waiting, calling, stopping there, hearing "your parts are up next" etc.
Reached out to Mike R and he said he'll take care of it and the turnaround would be quick. Dropped the parts off just waiting for him to call to say its done
Looking into changing up some gauges. Is anyone using this 4 in 1 gauge from Innovate Motorsports?

Don't let that hold ya back. I pulled my s50 a few years back with a full arm cast two weeks after I shattered 4 bones in my wrist in a bike wreck.

I cut the tip of my thumb to the bone with my bandsaw while I was building my turbo manifold. I was on vacation from work and wanted to get it done so I super glued the outside shut and kept going.
