Matt_vp, here is a photo of the cross over pipe. Its a simple setup, but works quite well. Fits nicely with the 3" stainless dump pipe.

After being on holidays for a while, I've finally got the VR booked for a tune up at the end of the month.

Over 550km on the clock, so not long to go.

Cheers

Thanks for the photo, should start on my new manifolds in the next few weeks and like the idea of using a standard manifold on the drivers side.
Good luck with the tune.

Well there is good news and there is bad news.

The bad news is the PCV valve kacked itself, on the dyno. It pressurzied the cracnk case and spat out the dipstick then covered the engine in oil. At least there was no fire. Due to the PCV valve we couldn't get any more than 8 psi boost and peak power was at 5100 rpm.

The good news is, that the engine survived its first tune and still made a very respectable 365hp@wheels on just 8 psi.

Here is the dyno report.
