julio, could you take a picture of your turbo.. my turbo has maybe 4-5 inches between the side of the exhaust and the front engine mount.. im thinking its gonna be a bitch to get a DP made.. just wondering if everyone else's is that close too

i had about 5inches between the turbo and the a/c compressor. the wastegate flange i got is 1 1/2 inch thick cause it's the factory one so if you have a block off plate and an external wastegate then you'll have more room to play with then i did. i have 3/4inch between the dp and a/c compressor which has a thermal sheet between the dp and a/c compressor. the dp is 2 1/2" od pipe.

i must have my turbo backward from yours, my compressor side is toward where the a/c compressor was, and the exhaust is toward the passenger side. is making pipes 100% easier to run except for DP
