2.75" is overkill IMO. 2.5" is easiest for our cars, they throttle body is 2.5 OD and most likely your intercooler is also. That kit doesn't look like it comes with 3 reducers, which cost like $25 a piece on atpturbo.com. I'd say order through JcWhitney.com and make your own or buy from --------------------------- and do some minor cutting and save some money.

BTW, I'm installing my turbo this week so if you want the oil pan you're gonna have to come get it. ;)

you're better off just buying some aluminized steel mandrel bends. that kit isn't custome made and will require some cutting and welding.

yah i agree, there is just as much for you to make those fit as it would be to fab up a custom set of pipes fomr jcwhitney and the like.....
