One more thing, do they have the same "foot" that will bolt directly to a 24V exhaust manifold?

i honestly don't remember the exact specs on the three i had. two were 57mm compressor and one was a 62. the boost elbow for a hx will work but i spent $12 at home depot and made my own. the downpipe is a B!T(H has to be custom made. but worth it. 4" outlet. and it bolted right up to the manifold. hardest part was the downpipe. but i would do it again in a heart beat. I believe it is a 57/71/13. But that is mine the others are 12-14 i think
