update
Possible change of plans
I'm pretty set on the external gate. BEGi has the downpipe n stuff, so that's a no brainer. But I am able to get either a T28 manifold OR a T3 manifold.
Is there a kick *** T3 that will suit my needs? Is there a kick ***, close enough to my needs T3 that's a **** ton less expensive than the 2871?
Is the TIAL 38mm F38 big enough? Or should I get the F41 41mm?

Ben, I'd love to see you do the 2871. It looks like a kickass turbo. You'll probably end up losing the spool you gained by going with the 71 over the 76 if you switch to a T3.

I've got a new fire ring gasket (for a 38) lying around if you want it. $5 shipped.
FWIW, I ran the turbosmart 35mm on my Forester up to 400 whp and 23 psi and it worked fine. Might be a bit cheaper. Uses the same flanges/gaskets as the Tial.

44 wasn't an option. they'll build the manifold and downpipe for either the 38mm or the 41mm tial. i'm sure they could accomodate something else if i sent it to them, but I think the fewer the variables I throw at them, the better chance we'll have for everything to fit right.
i can get the tial 38 for about $200 from Kelly.
i don't know what a fire ring gasket is, but if i need one, i'll take it.

oh it'll leak. you'll take it out for a couple hard runs and that @#$(*& TiAL gasket will be crispy and hanging on by one bolt as your exhaust leaks out the unsealed flange.
Just clean the flanges up and make sure they're flat and run no gasket. Works a treat.
