okwho other htan HKS makes a drop in turbo

OR a turbo that will bolt ot the manifold, and has an outlet pipe readily avaliable

I just dont want to go topmount/make an outlet/make XXXXXX **** to get it to work

Welding is super expensive in japan, and so is HKS

I think it's for his stagea, and I think he's just going to have to suck it up and pay a shop to make him a downpipe. There is no cheap option.

How much have you been qoated for fabbing a DP?

Nothing is going to be a drop in since you'll need to upgrade injectors and get some sort of engine management hardware/software.

How much power are you looking to run?

Then, find a guy to weld for you because "performance" shops will rape you on labor like that. Buy the flanges and pipes/bends separately so you only have to pay for assembly.

Settle. You said you were quoted $550 for a dp (and you didn't studder). You said nothing about materials being extra. I edited my post and forgot to delete the part on having a dp built. Sorry for the confusion.

Is the JGY turbo the 6-bolt outlet or the 5-bolt they have shown on the picture? The reason I guided you to horsepowerinabox is because of the 6-bolt being a true bolt in (to the stock elbow) and it comes with the anti-surge inlet housing. It boils down to what you want and what shipping is going to cost you.

I know atp does not carry it and they do a boat load of business so hopefully JGY can pull strings for ya. Isnt Bwana a Garrett dealer? Maybe he can hook you up too.

funny hting ishorsepower in a box has it, but noone in teh US does.they are who all the aussie guys go through, but for the 1700.00 bucks, i can buy a new HKS turbo almost. so its not really worth it ya know?Im tryign to stay aroudn 13-1400.00 for the turbo.I mean, if i can find a complete kit, with turbo and outlet and lines if needed, id pay a little more. BUT for just a turbo, i cant justify it\
