Garrett 2052 install on a 3B w/pics and video

[altay]

I own a BJ75 pick-up and would like to turbocharge. After reading this thread, called the Garret dealer and asked for GT2052.
I was told that I had to specify the vehicle because this is a common turbo and fitted to many engines (Transporter, defender, discovery, terrano ...)
So, if you are still follwing this thread then I would like to know how you ordered your GT2052 turbo. Thanks

for anyone looking for it, heres is the diagram Garrett sent me for the GT2052 Exhaust flange measurements. And would be awesome if someone could premake a down header off this setup for we all know how tight this fit is. The exhaust i had put on is alright leaking up by firewall where he tried to join the downtube to the rest of the exhaust.

Isn't the downpipe on this particular GT2052 a swaged pipe which is held on by a triangular flange? Different to the usual flange welded to a down-pipe.

yes i think, initially i had hard time finding exhaust flange so I called Garrett but I dont understand why they dont make a flange for their turbo?
