Very sexy!

What did you use for the turbo flange, did you cut off an old one or start from scratch?

Nice! Hows the space against the surrounding stuff? And the nuts on the flange for example? Will you attack the wg line as the stock exhaust?

Remember an O2 sensor bung (or 2), and ask about how much for more copies

We used a stock flange, just to tack to it for placement, The turbo I'd like to used has a 3" V-band. For the stock turbo there would have to be 3-2.5" stepdown

there is actually more clearance with this pipe than the factory. With the stock pipe its too close to the J pipe, so you have to remove the J pipe before you can pull off the down pipe. (because the DP has to move backwards to clear the studs on the hotside, and it hits the J pipe) We adjusted so there is more room.

The turbo I want has an integrated WG and BOV
