Well for one, the Drag DP has a 5 bolt flange so you'll have to cut that right off! Then you need to have a 4 bolt flange welded on.

You'd be a lot happier if you got a t04e or t04b!

Well, the t04x is just going to make more power. This little turbo will probably spool faster though.

You want the standard T3 outlet though, else you're going to have to custom build a downpipe ...

There is a reason that "brand new" turbo is currently at $250...
