from my past experiance dude when i was about to do a t3 conversion to my sr engine in the s13, i was going to have to modify the elbow as they are diff compared to the t25/28 standard s body elbows and had to find a top mount manifold and do a bit of modifing to make it fit, the turbo lines need to be blocked as some are only oil cooled so i went down the garret way as it was a oem fitment, t3 would produce lag and are a better upgrade for a rb engines then a ca or sr
