Instructions with what? making a downpipe? put the manifold and turbo setup on, put the plate on and start making your downpipe? Are you going to be welding your own pipe or what?
Maybe I am a bit confused on what the question is...

I took a couple of u bends, made some cuts, marked them up, and had a buddy weld them. Simple as that. Take it to the exhaust shop if you need to.

lots of varibles when doing downpipes, so its tough to say.
do you think 2.5 will be fine (7-10 lbs) and what would you prefer far as material and o2 bungs. thanx. i know it can all be a personal preference but just need too get an idea. thanx
