you can get a spacer off ebay for your specific turbo that will have a wastegate flange on there.


problem with that is, depending on your manifold, if its too wide, with the exhaust flange and all, you wont have enough room for the dp to bend around, or itll be WAYYY to close to the alternator.. you would need a turbo manifold that mounts the turbo closer to the drivers side, and NOT THE MIDDLE of the manifold, or you wont be able to get a spacer..

what you also must think of... if you're planning to buy a turbo kit for high boost.

for example the sharkracing stage 3 turbokit!
cost about 4350 dollars.

dont be greedy to get that one but think about it for at least twenty times.


cause for that price you can buy a whole lot more for even a much higher hp!!


and ofcourse, learn more about the turbo if you only know its giving you a push in the back wink1.gif

Well, this post is for the DIY turbo kit. Hopefully, if they're reading this, then they already know that a DIY kit will be far better and cheaper than a premade kit from a company.
Premade kits are for people who don't have the resources to build one and want a "bolt on" turbo.

/\ well there are recomended mods to handle the extra power, LSD is definatly related to turboing, not so much with the strut bars
