Any t4 turbo will fit with this kit. however, you will have to fab your own down pipe. i test fitted a pt88 on my car and it fit just fine.

i also recommend fabbing some kind of a turbo brace to help hold the weight of the pt88.


if you wanted to run a bigger turbo yet, say a large from t6 of some sort. you would need to stand up the radiator, but we do offer the kit with a t6 flange as well. what we do is cut the t4 off of a crossover we have in stock, and weld on the t6. and then ship it to you.

i hope this helps! if youd like to order a kit pm me and we can get the ball rolling. we are running a special right now as well.

THANKS!

If you have any questions, always feel free to shoot either of us a PM as well.

Casey hit it on the head. Yes it will fit, new down pipe will be needed however and the bottom of the radiator kicked forward in the lower cradle. A brace for the bigger turbo is also recommended.

What do you mean by a brace John? Like a hanger for the turbo somewhere?

I would fab up some sort of brace that helps support the turbo so the larger and heavier turbo is not supported only by the piping. Just as an extra precautionary measure and to help increase longevity of everything. A standard t4 turbo is not heavy enough to cause any issues but going to a bigger turbo like the pt88 I would recommend something to help support the weight of the turbo
