It needs to go.

Headers(turbo mainfolds) -> into a Y with the flange on the end of that [simply put]

not the truth theres a lot of ways you can do piping, that is just the most common.

If your saying what I think you are your gonna have some complex piping, and you will have to use a turbo with an internal wastegate, and your gonna have to take the h-pipe and make it a Y-pipe come into the hot side of the turbo then off your dump come back out the back of the car.

flip your manifolds around... fab two pipes to run together and form a Y and put a t3/4 mount on that... then run the hot side down on the passenger side next to the starter you will have the most room there... the cold side will be easier and i have a feeling you can get that on your own

no trust me
if someone gets an H-pipe from a singe turbo set up that have some re-thinking to do and studing on it

im not trying to be a dick but if your really going to custom fab one its gonna suck if say you forget to mount a waste gate! or mount it on the cold side or just in the wrong spot and we get a my turbo went to 20psi then the engine blew...what the hell?


or say he gets and oil/water cooled turbo and he only runs oil to it.

lots of things can go wrong
