allready doing the manifold. as for intake im getting an actual garrett inlet that allows me to put 3" intake piping and silicone couplers on the compressor. this should make fabing up a pipe to my filter and mafs a lot easier. i'm also happy b/c i can keep my injen intake so far thanks to the side mount.

the downpipe is just a generic flange for a 3 bolt t3 exhaust welded to a mandrel bent 90* pipe. the pipe is pretty thick and it has an 02 bung welded

this one i got with the trubo from the kid who sold it too me how ever you can usually trust the ones off ebay. it think its kind of hard to screw up a piece of heavy steel. i used one off ebay on my brothers high compression turbo fc rx7.

i would just recomend asking them if it fits on your exact turbo that way if they do mess it up and it doesn't fit you at least have some kind of grounds to make them take it back and give you your money back

Hey John, Hows the ka-t coming along. Also I see that your going to the UTI avondale campus. Im going to the chicago one, hopefully get into the bmw step program. I blew my ka again and decided to just swap out the motor, I didnt wanna go band-wagon SR so i got a ca18 instead and im loving it.
