well as far as i know headers are not on turbo's

but as for getting your turbo to breath better i would say get a downpipe forst to reduce weight unless you are concerned about passing emissions in nazi california

as for a turbo timer its really up to you if you run you car hard i would suggest a turbo timer

All a turbo timer does is keep the car running after you cut it off to cool off the turbo so oil will not burn in it. If oil burns on the bearings in the turbo they wear out much more quickly.

i think ima just go with the downpipe...i dont care about passing...buh whas connect to the engine if theres no header

the turbo is what connects the exhaust to the block/manifold.

then the elbow comes off the turbo and then you have your downpipe.

headers come directly off the block because there is no turbo.
