Yep... If you're going with RRM'S turbo your Kamikaze is useless. If you're going custom, you may be able to get a shop to reuse the flange and make a log manifold out of it.

I dont' know if I would reuse the flange, the one on the kami isn't hte best. you got 3 options if your going turbo, all of which involve trashing the kami:
1)turbo manifold from rpw or tsi etc
2)gank an evo SS manifold and weld a 4g94 header flange onto it
3)rrm header setup, but then you have to mess with up pipe/downpipe nonsense

The header's design would make the turbo sit extremely low if you tried to use it as an exhaust manifold. You could try cutting off a large portion of the runners and working from there, but otherwise it's useless.

can always go supercharger way. That way you wont waste your header and can use it for some power gains.

If I were going to SC I'd get an RPW header and d/p anyway. Might as well get the best available extractors if you're going to go super.

There is nothing better out there and you know it. There is nothing out there that can even come close to it.
