Consider how many more Eagle Talon turbos are on the road than Audi type 85
turbos.  No small wonder why the 3" zorst is so much cheaper for the talon.
I gave up on buying pre made custom things like that because of cost.
Instead I made an investment in a TIG welder and I'll just fabricate one
myself.  Who knows.. maybe if it doesn't take me too long I'll make up a
couple of them.
