Custom Downpipe need alittle help
I am piecing together a custom down pipe and wanted to hear others opinions on how this setup will work. I am running a HKS manifold so the turbo is set in the middle, and a GT28RS turbo.

Looks like that will bring you too close to the firewall
My turbo sits further forward than yours and I don't think that would fit on mine. Also, you're adding another v-band clamp that you don't need AFAIK, I wouldn't do that upstream of the O2 sensor since it may leak a bit.
Making a DP is pretty simple once you have the parts, a friend of mine and I built mine w/ an abrasive saw and a welder in ~ 3hrs.

Get one of these to start...
The quality of the downpipe is not bad.. You need to cut it just above/under the o2 sensor...
I used a 2.25 inch bend to connect it to my turbo...
1st hook it up to your kat (no lock nuts, testing only..)... mark where you want to cut...
