Dude. just ------- install everything. Drive it open turbo to the shop (no downpipe). Then have them weld you up a down pipe. comprehend?

LOL... That's what I was trying to say.

You need at least 3 things welded: BOV, Oil Pan Nipple & Downpipe.

You can figure out where your BOV & Nipple go well in advance of your install day. Pull the pan & take that and your IC pipe/BOV flange to your welder and have them welded. Cap the nipple and reinstall the pan.

When it comes to install day, put your kit together completely MINUS the downpipe. Drive the car over to your welder (again) and have them fab the downpipe with the turbo on the car. It will be loud, but you'll save a lot of time, trips and headaches.

You're making it way too hard. :1
