I wasnt sure how I was going to go about getting an accurate measurement on the angle of it, but I think a solution slapped me in the face yesterday. I just got an iPhone, and they have a digital level application, so I should be able to just lay the edge of the phone on the feed flange and it will tell me the angle of the CHRA... but I have to have the manifold bolted to the engine and the turbo bolted to the manifold for an exact measurement.

And I agree with you on the purple thing . Thats the plan... beauty in moderation though, especially with purple.

Good idea.. i actually have that app on my iphone. or do you have a protractor laying around? im pretty sure they have them at the dollar store.
