My ls project
You would need to purchase the v-band clamp & flange to weld to the downpipe from them, or you could have used a 4/5 bolt housing in the .55a/r that would fit the 2.5" 4 bolt downpipe correctly. The .70a/r comes in v-band only, the .55A/R comes in 4/5 bolt Garrett configuration, and the .85A/R and .76A/R use a unique 6 bolt flange pattern in which the weld flange would have to be purchased from them.
This is from Peakboost. He'll have the flanges needed, if you were 4/5 bolt. Otherwise, you'll need to purchase the weld flange and clamp from Bullseye.

i got a question should i leave it open downpipe or should i finsh with 3'' exhaust i know less back pressure helps the turbo spool quicker but i don't know if no back pressure is good to this car is gonna be a daily driver til november then it will be a weekend warrior and i will buy a stock honda for a daily driver something with ac lol.
you could keep the exhaust thats on the car and put in a electric cutout right after the downpipe. so you flick a little switch and you will have an open exhaust it 10 seconds. like the catch can system what brand is it?

do they have a a website? not really just have it open when you tune. talk to a tuner about it, i know a few people that use them and there cars run fine if there closed.

Looks alot better in the Black man. Props again to all your hard work.
The black interiors just look awesome.
I can't wait to see what you numbers you put down after shes tuned as well as I can't wait to see what you can do with her at the track.
Man I am jealous of your build.
But hopefully I can get started on mine in 8 months or so. Only shooting for 300WHP though.
