    downpipe

    Just received nice s/s system from cherry (many thanks, but your wrapping services need practice lol).
    I'm just curious about the down pipe, why does it have two ports at the manifold end? Probably a daft question but since I don't know lol.
    How simple is the down pipe to remove, there doesn't seem to be much space at the turbo to even get a hand in?

    One port is for the exhaust gases from the turbine and the other is for the wastegate.

    From the picture I saw it should fit a turbo like this one.

    I know thats what he stated but I dont know what the differnce is between turbos so Im just curious lol.
    Im wanting to use the whole system so I'll obviously have to modify the downpipe to fit.
    Hopefully i'll be removing the standard one soon and working out how im going about it.
