^^^ Yeah our J-pipes are VERY restricted and apparently the T25 one has better flow than the T28.

yes, it does, we were talking about this for the 1 piece downpipe/o2 housing, about 2 ft. down would be fine.

If the cost isnt too much more i am sure us 1 piece 3" buyers would be down for the v band disconnect at the o2 housing. it wouldnt bother me any, i also second the 2 o2 bungs.

thanks,Jon

Yeah a v-band would be handy on the 1 piece. A 2nd O2 bung down near the sway bar is a must. I have mine in a location that keeps it protected from road debris, and the pigtail slips perfectly between the chassis and subframe and locates the connector for the signal wire safely in the bottom of the engine bay.

I'd be down for this too. I wouldn't mind a 2-piece with v band disconnects and 2 O2 bungs. Although there would be added costs, I wouldn't mind spending a little extra for it.

Yeah, a vband disconnect would be a simple addition, as would a second o2 bung. As a tuner for quite some time, a second o2 bung for a quick wideband install is always convenient.

So, to clarify then, we're talking:

A simple O2 housing that's 2.5". I'll make a recirc. one, and a "screamer" version. Each will incorporate an O2 bung, and they will divide the turbine housing once bolted to the turbo.

The one piece downpipe will be 2.5" flared to 3". There will be an optional vband disconnect in the former O2 housing/dp connect region. There will be optional single or double O2 bungs.

I'm working hard to get this done soon. I've been talking with the flange maker daily, and we're workin on getting the flange made specifically for these applications. Be patient for me, and we're gonna get all this stuff made soon.
