evom you can find them cheap but it's a lot of work to adapt it to fit a dsm although it bolts right up.

You'll need to rebuild the lower lateral brace because the outlet for the O2 housing will run right into it. And relocate the Power steering pump entirely, and the alternator and find a way to get the DP which normally goes under the oil pan to run towards the drivers side of the car, then shoot back in it's normal position.

But I have a manifold and Evo 8 turbo, if you have a couple grand you wanna spend on it the project. The turbo and manifold will likely be the cheapest part of your plan. Looked into it. Even considered it for a while. It's not on my car for a reason.

They do make ones that flip the turbo 180* and bolt up to our cars, I think it's revspeed? Cost about $1000 usd

People have tried to do a budget evo turbo setup and it has never been cost effective. Thats why you see no one running them. U can get a good direct bolt on charger for the price it cost to do everything to run evo chargers.

^^ And this was what I was thinking when looking at that post down in OT the other day. RWD, Ram50 or MM, perfect setup.

I saw that evo turbo bolt-on part as well a while back. Basically a flip flop flange but it looked like it forced the turbo away from the motor, which I would think would force it to hit the radiator. Possibly one of those 'bolt on' parts that creates a long list of other things you need to bolt it on.

I'd love to find someone who could do such a flip-flop flange...I have an evo 8 mani and evo x turbo, and if i could get a flange to bolt them together and keep the setup twin-scroll that would be excellent.
