So here it is - they sold this turbo as an upgrade for all of these models as far as I can tell it fits NONE of them - If I can return it I will. I knew it was cheap but it just plain fits nothing and if there is a flange to fit that flange would push the exhaust back...

Any thoughts? Thanks for your replys

Do you think its bullshit at the end where he says make sure the flange will fit your vehicle? The flange fits nothing!

You posted 3 consecutive times in this thread. Think that's saying something?

Didnt i say it fit nothing like 5 times already? Guess you finally got the hint. You need to return it, sell it or just call it a loss. Its best that you dont even try to make it work since it will cost more money and just fail shortly after install. Think you should just think of this as a costly lesson.

F'ing thing has surface rust and the nut is ground down - the thing came in a beat up box half wrapped in bubble wrap and bouncing around. Good news is its about 3 inches short of the ko3 so there should be room for the flange...

Stay tunes for photos...
