Just wanted to share some of the pictures of our new BIG HKS turbo:-)
The turbo is planned to go in the car in about 3-4 weeks.

Why would you want to step up from 4.5" down pipe to 5" I would think if anything you would step down.

And what type of racing do you plan to do???

The turbine inlet is 80mm, and the outlet to the downpipe is 115mm. So I need at least a 115mm downpipe. And teh exhaust can go a bit bigger so that is why 5"

The IC is a Greddy core 600x300x100 ( 4" thick)( out of a Supra). The piping is all 80mm ( 80mm outlet on the compressor, and 80mm TB).

I wonder how you are going to deal with the piping as the turbo is basically facing the ANTI-Evolution direction.

You can clock the turbo any way you want it.
It actually will bolt up to the HKS manifold with an adapter flange:-)
