You run seperate pipes from each header to the turbo correct? If you look up a few posts in this thread you will see pictures of my buick v6 ta headers, I want to build a v8 set to mimmick these headers, basically a rear crossover to a primary rh tube that will go straight to the turbo, each port on the rh side will go directly to the larger pipe, Im trying to decide if 3" would work or if I need 2.5? I cant find 1 3/4 to 2 1/2 collectors, only 3" Im thinking that 3" would be perfect for the RH side pipe into the turbo, might as well use a 3" crossover as well?

Im going with mild steel, then coating, it is a g-body car, im going to mock the engine/trans on the frame this weekend and get an idea of space, but with a front crossover it will limit the space for the IC piping and sway bar...
