for the td04 you will probably be easier off getting a top mount w/ a wrx bpv. there's no plastic piece that goes from the turbo to the intake manifold for these turbos

also you will need a 2 1/4" 90* elbow for the inlet

I already have a tmic and a bov. So all I need is that 90 degree elbow that goes on the front of the turbo? And I'll be set?

that and some sort of pipe to connect the stock black elbow to your 2 1/4" elbow to make the rest of your intake work.

Can I use just metal exhaust type tubing? Or do I have to have something silicone or rubber? Sorry for all the dumb questions this is all very new to me.

you should be able to get aeay with a piece of exhaust tubing. measure the inside diameter of the Black plastic/rubber elbow in the bottom of it where it goes on the turbo and get a piece of exhaust tubing that size. get a piece of exhause that is about 2.5 inches long.

alright sweet! i'm really excited about hooking this turbo up i got it in the mail last Friday looks real nice. i'm about to order the silicon 90 for the intake. and i'm gonna do the resonator delete at the same time. i wanna hear that turbo. lol then here soon ill probably run a bpv instead of a bov.

id start working on it right now buts its in the single digits here right now. even tho the car is in the garage i cant really heat my garage when its that cold.
