If I searched long enough I could piece this together. But im sure someone can simply put it on me.

the stock downpipe should work but. and the intake isnt a probelm but its oiled cooled - what would I need to do to get this to work.

I think the stock hard lines will bolt right up. And if you use the stock lines, you get the oil restrictor bolt as an added bonus. If I'm wrong, then a simple set of SS lines is all you need. And possibly a restrictor depending on who makes your lines.

Oil/water lines should bolt up (though if it's BB you should get a restricter), most likely need adapter for use with S13 intake pipes. The downpipe will not work, the RBs use a different bolt pattern on the turbo, garrett calls it the "compact 5-bolt" pattern.

S14/S15 should bolt up easier, but downpipe still won't work

the compact 5 simply has a smaller overall diameter for the bolt pattern?

No prob... link to the equivalent Garrett

One of the custom shops that tunes both SR and RB motors may be able to built a custom pipe for you...

Smaller, and I think two of the bolts shift... I've never really looked to see if a turbo elbow for an RB could bolt to an SR/S-chassis downpipe... might work?

I dont see why not...

time for some research and measurements. if the RB dump is the same length as the sr dump, ill buy one just to test it out.
