you have to match some CDM parts together. the angle of the DP flange on the turbo is different than a garrett turbo. the pattern is the same, but its slightly rotated. you have to use a CDM turbo with a CDM downpipe. or modify it, which is why i dont sell downpipes. by the time you modify it, you could have just made one

did you really expect it to work. there are alot of variables like phillstubbs said. the angle of the flange and even the angle the manifold sets the turbo at will throw all that off. only time i would expect an egay dp to works is with an egay turbo and egay manifold

The key words here: "you could have just made one"

I didn`t even start putting turbo kits on cars till I got a cheap welder to do exhaust with...a welder is WORTH EVERY PENNY.

I think that`s a good idea. It can be done for resonably cheap if you have the materials.
