GSL-SE needs DP for stock turbo

Will a 2 Gen TII DP( or aftermarket 3") work on an GSL-SE using a factory turbo on Factory manifold?
Does it line up with the space for original exhaust, or will I have to mod it?
only one exhaust shop in my little town. and I would have to provide all the pieces. Might as well build it myself, but I would need the DP to get started

Are you using a GSL-SE engine or a factory TII engine?

If using a GSL-SE engine, have you already bolted the intake manifold and the stock TII exhaust manifold together? Because they shouldn't fit together.

If you are using a full TII setup, the RB down pipe should work.
