I would think that you would be largely on your own fabricating your entire exhaust once you got that. Is your stock turbo going to bolt up to that? Am I missing something?
The car has the stock turbo... I meant I dont intend to upgrade it (although, who knows). With that manifold, I may need to do some fabrication, but wont know until I get all the pieces in one spot to match em up and see how they will fit. Exhaust fabrication isn't really a big deal as long as there are no additional big bends. If you happen to know of a better exhaust/manifold header that would be better overall, I posted this list so that people could correct my choices or offer up options (thats the reason I'm not moving really quickly, I dont want to do it twice and all of these parts are new to me.. its been 20 years since I worked on my own car)
