if they make a 3" downpipe for the greddy kit, yes.

When you say you already have 3" exhaust now, is that crappy crush bent or mandrel bent?

rofl.

Yes, the greddy kit should be complete. It's a complete kit from the get-go, no reason he shouldn't be giving you the downpipe with it.

all turbos have an exhaust housing that needs to have a downpipe attached. getting a 3" for that turbo will require a custom made downpipe. pretty sure the outlet is only 2", i know kteller makes a 2.5" downpipe upgrade for the 15g.

the "downpipe" that comes with the greddy kit is a crappy cast 2" elbow

Then again, its only a 15g. Not like were dealing with some huge GT series turbo.
