Sorry. I meant that you can remove the turbo, and bolt a plate of steel where the turbo bolts onto the manifold. I guess this isn't really what you were looking for though.

so is mine, but you need to uhook the flapper. Otherwise when you hit the gas, its going to spin it up and try to make 6,7,8 psi, whatever your gated at, and with no resistance to the air, you'll spin the hell out of your turbo.

it would be really hard to overspin a turbo without the increased load it itself produces...
put on the manifold, turbo, and downpipe, oil feed and return, coolant lines if the turbo has them, and ur good to go. just drive it easy and you shouldnt have any problems.
