None, you have to have one custom made.

You just have to flip the header upside down. It will still bolt to the head, then you can bolt the turbo on.

Aaaaaand and they're off! Whinin has just past leafy on the inside rail, with an upside-down manifold spooling all-of-it.

Are you look for a downpipe that fits before the manifold cracks, or after it cracks?

maybe it will crack ... maybe not. building 2 struts (hope its the right english word) between the turbo bolts and the header. if it cracks - welding - cracks again - welding again ^^ cycle of life :P

bought some V2A parts for an exhaust. hope its runnin next week
