well if you ever go external gate, just weld the flange to the stock mani. that's what i did and it works perfectly. i recommend synapse too, i have the 38mm and its pretty nice. and as long as you use a T2 turbo on the stock manifold you don't ave to spend any more money on that stuff.

or you can get all ghetto like me and fab up your own DP and use a junkyard holset. lol. cheapest and fastest setup i've had. just got the turbine housing ported for mine too.

Keo, I thought I told you my name was Lance...

I found a gt28rs with gti-r manifold and j-pipe, but I don't have the funds for it right now. I don't have anything that I can currently sell either, so... Unless Eder wants to loan me like $500 for it.


This made me LuLZ

That's probably what I'll do if I stay with what I got. And I just got a bunch of mandrel bent piping today, too. Like 15 minutes before my turbo exploded.

LOL. I figured you'd get a laugh out of that.

I got the turbo off and it's FUBAR! The shaft is in a couple pieces inside the CHRA.

Pulled the turbo off and this is what I found.




It's the same on the compressor side. The shaft is in a couple pieces inside.

That sucks, I'm afraid of the same thing happening after I put a bunch of time and money on rebuilding a block.

I do have a spare ball bearing T25 if you are interested.
