The 8 second whale ride and the silver NB aren't pics from my album... somehow Flounder posted a reply to someone else's thread, but it showed up here.

that's an odd footprint that the manifold was modded for, does the turbine housing match it? DSM footprint maybe.

I still need to put in a call to Corky/Tim... but I've heard the GT2871 educated guess from a couple other sources.

Footprint - I'll be honest... I'm not sure what you're talking about - :noob: - Are you talking about the port hole of the manifold matching the size of the turbo intake? What's DSM footprint mean? Eager to learn it all. Thx
