I believe its a different flange to mount it to the manifold. Also need some controller to control the turbo. And downpipe is different. Its definitely not a bolt on swap.

The only thing wrong with Banks stuff is its way overpriced and the performance gains are mild. If it were given to me I'd run their stuff anyday and modify it like everything else to make good power.

If you think Banks' stuff is a complete joke than you obviously have a lot to learn. And FYI your immaturity is showing by posting things like that. If he came on here talking like Gale does, it would be a different story and I'd hope we all joined in to bury him.



To the original poster,
Like stated you will need a different manifold or an adapter, as well as a means to control it. The turbo will work with stock to mild fueling, thats the great part about variable geometry turbos.

1. you need an adaptor unless your a good welder...
2. it WILL hit your shock tower...
3. no, no fueling mods are needed to run the turbo...
4. you know the little elbow that claps to your turbo? youll need another one... clamp them together to make an "s" if you will back down to your intercooler
5. there are oil drain line mods...
6. good buy!!! you wont be sorry!

i can get you more pix or info if need be just pm me...

unless you get a manifold like this then there shouldnt be shock tower clearance issues and maybe less piping issues...

Front main seal leak maybe? Thats a pretty good little puddle.

That manifold you had a pic of is from a 12 valve. I believe its a rv manifold. I have a school bus one on mine. Are these turbos water cooled? I want one on mine. Also what foot is it? Is it t4?
