Yeah, I think I'll order one. On my last turbo exhaust housing cracked. I think it was a crappy casting but I'm sure if I had a flex it may have held up longer.
So, if I got a 6" flex where is the ideal location on the downpipe ?
TIA

Flex joints are a GREAT idea, regardless if your exhaust is hard or soft mounted. It will reduce stress to your turbo and your most likely expensive turbo manifold. Think of your exhaust as a HUGE breaker bar bolted to your turbo. I can't seem to find a 3.5" flex joint though
