ive ordered the dp flange plate from RRE, waiting on it to get here. the first time i drove it i was in shock.. i drove in vacuum until it got warm.. then i took off in first gear and about 4800rpm it just broke loose spinning tires.. when i hit boost in 2nd gear i blew a pipe off. one other thing i forgot to mention, i had to clock the turbo a little so the exit side of the compressor would not hit the turbo.. and i had to drill a hole in the wastegate actuator bracket to rotate it so it was not at a bad angle.

you may end up cutting quite a bit more than me into the bumper support since yours is the 6" core.. it was very much so worth it

clocking it was VERY easy.. loosen 4 bolts, turn it, and tighten them back down. i have aim, my sn is " t" .. im always open to talk as long as i have time.. the entire install is pretty fresh in my mind since i just got done 3 days ago
