KA Top Mount T3/T4 Question

[240silvia]

Ok, I'm going with a top mount T3/T4 on my KA. NOW, the question is.... for the exhaust, how did you guys get from the turbo, to the downpipe?????? I know I'm not the only guy that has done this setup, so, come on boys.... give me some ideas. The only thing I have came up with is making a custom pipe to go from the turbo to the downpipe. So.... HELP!

Yea I've poked around there before. I just figured that I'd ask here first.

anyone? I need some damn help!

what kind of downpipe are you using?

Most guys I've seen just build custom downpipes that attach directly to the turbo with the turbine outlet flange.

Either SSA (your manifold maker) has it specific to their manifold, or you are going custom. Custom just needs 2 90* bends, o2 bung(s), and a 3" 3-bolt flange, and your turbo (t3 5bolt probably) flange. This is like... $90 in materials and gaskets. Then a bit of time welding.

Thanks Jeff. I got the T3/T4 with the 4 bolt pattern exhaust. I figured it would be easier. So, looks like I'm going custom.....
