^^^okay. this may seem like a stupid thing to say since you have a micrometer and the know how about porting... but remember to remove the cover form the turbo before you start cutting... dont want any savings getting behind the compressor wheel...

you seem to be brighter then most... but we all know that there are some people out there that need to be told...

I was just thinking he could port it while the car is running. That way the turbo will suck up the shavings and shoot it out the exhaust.....

Thanks man!.......


Well got my cover and intake pipe today. I got the turbo/cover completely off the car and got to measuring...The 64mm outlet/j pipe hole was a hair smaller then the opening on the ix j pipe...so then i measured the FP 84mm cover outlet hole and it was dead nuts even with the ix pipe opening.....Sorry fellas no pics but it is a good and smooth transition from the pipe to turbo cover...on the 84mm cover

So after pondering a "better design" i felt it would not really enhance spool or flow any by replacing the ix pipe with an after market one....unless you bought the BR Licp....which comes with a turbo outlet.

Again sorry for not having pics....im fired

Side-note: the new 84mm cover and intake pipe look sexy...can't wait to give her a try.
