Default Full 2.5 or 3" DP for greddy td-04 15g?

Ok so In know Kteller and several other people/places make "off the elbow" DPs, does anyone make a true 2.5 or 3" DP for this turbo(eliminating that POS elbow)? or anyone know of place that sells the right flange so I can get one made?

currently the car has stock greddy elbow, stock greddy DP then a Kteller 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust. it spools up fairly quick(starts @ 3K, 5 PSi by 3500, 13 by 4100) but, I want it to spool up even faster and have even better power @ a lower PSi....gonna get it retuned @ maybe 8-10 PSI

You'd pick up a decent amount of spool rpm with a tubular elbow, as well as some power. weirTech has some posted in the fab forum, and he apparently still makes them.

im sure you could by a flange and some bends and work one out yourself.

Bingo! A nice cheap wire feed welder is a great place to start learning, and not that big of an investment either. Once you learn to weld, you'll never run out of things to weld up.

hes fabing a downpipe not a manifold.

els would be mad thick.

just some 16ga mandrels would be fine.

or get hardcore and just buy a chunk of straight pipe and whitey bend the ---- out of it.
