It is much cheaper to get a custom setup and everything will fit with no hacking the LIM. You can get V band flanges and better oil lines also. I sent You a PM.

You are going to love that turbo! I just got mine running and I am still working out some bugs with the car but this thing is bad ***! I have not dynoed yet and I am only running at 15psi and all I can say is that my car is turning into a beast... I cannot imagine a better street/strip turbo. Really, I mean there is very minimal lag, if you can even call that, and you can crank up the boost to 25psi and you are still well within the turbos range. I don't know about an all out drag car, but for a street killer...

Turbonetics BB turbos are crap. Check out Innovative BB Turbos.
I believe the Turbonetics turbos are only a single BB, and that they don't last very long.
