3" 1jz downpipe ?

taking off the turbos is a pain in the ASS.

btw matt, i was at the shop the other day. i saw your block off plate. i cant use it unless i have a cap for the pressure side too. if you can find something let me know

hhmmm, ok I will try to find it.

when you say "it's a pain to change", how would you compare it to changing the turbo on an MR2 turbo? How about a 2002 wrx? I've done both and people say those are a pain.

If you work fast it takes about 3 hours to get them off and back on, if you have all the right tools. Many of the nuts are hard to access with enough torque to break them free. It's not THAT bad but if you do it once you will not look forward to doing it again :biglaugh:

I hear the y-pipe does make a big difference, and it is a lot less money then a aftermarket turbo setup.

ahh ok. I got the sense that it was almost impossible to do...

Get on it, man! I'll buy a downpipe from you.
