looks good to me.. although i'm curious about the 'garrett dry center' as opposed to a wet center...??

I'd say that's a perfect turbo for an auto @ 15psi. Buy it!

I notice you have a Hahn kit, You will need a new manifold if you have a hahn manifold. You will need a star manifold or something to fit that T3 on, and a new downpipe it looks like as well :)

A new DP yes, but not a new manifold. HRC turbos use the T3 flange on the exhaust housings, even though they're termed "16g".

Nice pickup. I know you'll be pleased.

i dont have a star kit, i have a pretty much custom kit w/ an alain manifold, i had a t3 before that was internally gated so this turbo should fit exactly how the old one did.
