DSM Turbo Question

Ok im looking at buying a turbonetics 60-1 but its a dsm flange. now i see dejon makes a turbo elbow adaptor for a dsm turbo to bolt onto our manifold. Now my question is would this allow for the turbo to bolt straight to the manifold or would i still need a all new manifold?

Y do you say that for a turbo to blow most of the time that means the car was not in tip top shape for that size turbo.

My buddys 60-1 has over 20,000 on his eclipse. we bought them at the same time.
his eclipse is fast as hell!

316 stainless ZZPerformance turbo exhaust manifold I would email zzp and c if that would fit

There are several reasons turbos blow up most the time people don't follow the directions. Like you need to restrict the flow of oil in to the turbo if your oil pressure is to high. Also another factor would be the return setup you need the oil to be able to glow freely back in to the pan if not it will back up and blow the turbo. There are many other reason most the time it's human error. I would most defiantly get a better exhaust manifold.

they are not made to the same quality as garrett, every person i have talked to that had a turbonetics has had problems, they switch to garrett, problem gone, google reviews, ull find the same thing, this isnt going on my expirience, its everyone elses reviews of them.
