I love the dumptube flex. It's cute...lol.
What turbo do you have bolted on there? </TD></TR></TABLE>
I got the flex bellow special ordered from the vibrant HQ (no warehouses had it in stock!)
57 trim t3/o4e .63... happens to be the same turbo that peakboost uses on their h22a kits i believe? i really wanted a GT turbo but got a good local deal on this.. it should throw the car around pretty good.

Awsome. I should have said that in the past for my own car. Now its been almost 2 years since I've really "driven" it.
Theres nothing better than driving your beloved turbo honda on the street and just enjoying the car.
I'm coming back soon though...

it worked out pretty good.. i sanded down a fast-turbo.com fitting and tapped the fitting in further to get some extra height. I'll take a picture after i eat some breakfast!

yes, a flex tube is going on, plus a bracket to hold the downpipe in place.. I dont want the exhaust putting any stress on manifold.

I'm estimating that it is ~ 1/4 el away from being equal length between the inner and outer runners.. close enough to be "equal length" i guess.

did you run the driver side piping through the front frame area?</TD></TR></TABLE>
