I briefly looked through my build thread and came up with these pictures. It's the piece on the far left of the first picture.

My GT76 is a $1000 cast wheel budget series turbo. A Cast S480 should be worth 100 hp over it.

im not sure . if i wanted to get it done it would only take a couple weeks but after waiting about a month for this to show up i started thumbing threw the c6 z06 classifieds and im a wreck (big time man period). i dont know what im going to do at this point, specially since its pretty much demodded for the most part right now for this turbo take over.
