I`ve looked and googled to no avail , can anyone help before I tuck my tail ? I couldn`t resist that . But really , is there any other BOLT-ON option for a single turbo on the VG30E other than the VG30ET parts ?

No. If you want bolt ons, stay with your 240 or date a stripper.

Closest thing to a true bolt-on kit is to get a manifold from SATAN and copy someone else's setup. Only really worth it if you have a really big turbo that won't physically fit in the stock location (SATAN can build them to relocate anywhere, usually the AC compressor spot) as the stock turbo manifold isn't really a restriction until... well, until you have a turbo too big to fit in the stock location anyways.

Well by chance I happened across a Z31 turbo in a local yard and it still had the manifolds and crossover pipe . I`m going back for it next saturday , cost , $45 plus tax .

Get the VIN from it and put it in the registry as a dead car.
