piping question for automatic

What's up guys, quick question...

I just got a turbo kit from another member for my auto lancer 02.
His kit I/C T28 version is for a manual so i was wondering if the piping supplied in that kit will work for my automatic. I called RRM and they quoted me for 600 just for piping powdercoated and everything. I think that's a bit steep.

Can anyone please help or advise on a alternative method?

Ask around with other auto turbo owners and see what they did... I'd personally go the custom piping route at that price.

i had bought a used rrm kit for a manual and put it on my auto the pipes have to be refabricated, the person that installed my kit was good at welding so he did it, you will just have to go to a welder and have him make you new ones

alright so i'll contact him when i get everything needed and setup.

but, Do all the pipes need to be refabricated or just one specific? Cause i know the transmission is really in the way on the drivers side, but the passenger side seems to have about the same clearance as a manual...

OK..LOTL....

Can you do me one little favor if possible, Can you post some pics of your Engine compartment to actually get a good visual of how it would look and where the pipes would run... The picture on RRM's site sucks!

Hook it up... You or anyone running a Turbo in their Auto 02-03.
