Lightbulb Single Turbo Upgrade, Downpipe HELP

Hi,
I've been having a slight vacuum line problem lately, like my BOV will be stuck open or i have a hose that's leaking or something, it just seams like i always have a problem with my rats nest. I was thinking about doing the non-sequential conversion but I'm also thinking about doing a single turbo upgrade. My biggest concern is the exhaust. Lets say I did go to a single turbo, how do i connect my mid-pipe and my Turbine. Is this just something that i would have to get custom fab-ed? Or is there a combo of a turbo and downpipe that works? If i did have to get a custom welded downpipe has anybody on here done that? How much did it cost? Also I'm open for recomdations on the turbo.


Thanks,
Patrick

If that's your biggest concern, I suggest you read more about what's required for a proper single turbo conversion....

I said that it's my biggest concern becuase anything else i need is a bolt on part, the turbo downpipe itself is something that i haven't been able to find, so yes as of right now the downpipe is my biggest concern

Again most kits come with a downpipe. Unless you buy everything custom. Then it's up to you to do.
