Hey Ben

Something I've heard said before is bigger dividends can be had by getting 
the exhaust gasses to the turbo with the least amount of restriction, highest 
velocity, and the most heat rather than worrying about a tuned equal length 
design. Another design element that RS Tuning used on my header was firing order 
routing into the collector box. This gives a designed swirl as the tubes dump 
the gasses in the firing order. The bonus is supposed to give us more twist to 
the turbine blades.

Another thing to consider is a new airbox and intake tract since your turbo 
will reside where your old airbox used to. When you jig your turbo mounting 
plate, plan very thoughtfully on the location of your turbo and its orientation. 
Good luck in your quest.
