i have no clue what your sayin in the first sentance but I have a gt2871r and hks bov and pipe from option imports, I got an adapter from bnrracing that solved my problems, it was a prototype version so kind of crude but it works, they may be able to fabricate you someting for cheap. ill try to find pics.

Since you're local, you may want to give these guys a call. They're a Zilvia sponsor, and are very knowledgeable on this topic. They've worked wonders with my car.

From what I know, I don't know why the hotpipe wouldn't work with the T28. I was told the hotpipe works with T25/8 with sidemount or front mount IC with no problem.
Which shop told you that?

Did you get the actual RWD SR20DET t28 or the FWD/AWd Bluebird t28?
sounds like you have the bluebird setup

if its anything like my gt2871r, its nothin like the stock turbos. True you have to clock them and maybe come to think about it a 90 silicone might work.

i dont have either... i was suggesting that because of a few friends setups were the turbo is clocked with the coupler

Alrite here is the whole story... I bought a motor from noyan usa and AUP installed it for me and when they were done we found out that the motor was defected. It was either the piston rings or the head gasket because the motor smoked alot from the motor also this motor had a t28bb on it not the stock t25. So that was $1100 dollars in the trash that i spent for that swap. Yesterday i went and got a replacement for the other motor and they said take the best parts. So i was going to keep the t28bb setup and give them the t25 off the new motor but the second motor was fucked up too. So now i am on motor #3 from noyan and i have to pay an extra 900 for this installation. So now i told them to keep the stock t25 because i need my car back. Thank you for your help.
