Order up a 5 bolt flange and cut/weld it onto the downpipe OR order a vband turbo and get a vband flange to weld on the downpipe.

They are actually cheaper as well, well if your buying brand new that is, then you have a choice. Original poster contact me if you need a 4 bolt

Yeah 4bolt turbos are cheaper. Just buy a 5bolt flange, cut the old one off and weld the new one on. Problem solved

Yeah, and the quality is horrible... just so you know. I reveiced one for free from a buddy and refuse to use it.

Use atpturbo.com for flanges.

Either way, we sell Garretts for just a bit more, well worth it to. Do it right the first time.

So is it right that AFI was banned? A HT member asked a question in a peakboost thread regarding their kit and they were banned because he responded with a picture answering the question asked. I seriously don't see anything wrong with it I just think its lame how people are singled out. Disregard my post I will delete it.
