Re: charge pipes to this?
 
unless you plan on doing some interesting bends to your charge pipe your gonna have to either A: clock the turbo, which means having to make a new wastegate bracket or B: creat some sort of elbow, or use the factory elbow and make a bend that goes toward your down pipe
Here in these pics you can see the stock elbow, in the second pic you can see the exhuast reducer welded to my lower charge pipe, ill be briging the gap with a section of radiator hose for now

Get a 14b compressor outlet flange from Weir in the classified section. It's a stickied topic. I got one today actually, it's pretty nice. I'l gonna run a 2" bend off of it that flares out to 2.5", since I doubt the flange is large enough to accomidate a 2.5" pipe elded to it.

autozone, heh its a domestic carberator filter, does the trick though lol all i did was cut an extra couple i had laying around and used that inside the inlet of the filter and that tightend things up nicly, then you just use the screw fastener on the filter and that bad boy isnt going anywhere. It fits nice and the filter is only 12 bucks, and looks alot better then having to go with screen mesh. The filter is easy to replace just take off the top mesh screen and they sell the replacments for like 4 bucks

Don't run that filter. I had one, I would hit 5psi at 4000rpm and the FOOP, No boost. Filter was to restrictive. I did't find out till changing all Vacuum lines, checking all chargepipes, changing BOV Springs, and 3 different wastegate. Then, I pull I didn't put the filter on and it was fine, so I put it back on andf the problem was back, So for the rest of the summer it was a HMT Screen for me.
