I need to buy my GT28R this morning and i am having problems finding out what outlet is needed.

FRSport has this one which is not compatible with my FMIC piping as i would need a reducing 90* elbow which they don't seem to make.

Do i have to use this or can i use the outlet off the standard T25G?

I just re-used the elbow from my CA t25. It fits.

A lot of people will tell you that you need all kinds of lines and gaskets and stuff. You don't. I just bought the turbo and slapped it on. You will need to run two manifold to turbo gaskets or clock the compressor housing, and you will need to heat the stock lines with a torch and carefully bend them a bit to fit. You will also need the two bolt inlet flange, as the CA's turbo had one built in. Other than that everything is the same. You can use the stock o2 housing, etc.

If you have an s13 FMIC hotpipe...use the SR/CA outlet, if you have an S14 FMIC hotpipe, use the S14 outlet. They are angled differently.
