you may be able to get away with cutting your old hotpipe and some fancy coupler action, and clocking your compressor the right way..

but your probably going to need a custom hotpipe.

i would think custom is the way to go on top mounts..but im not 100% sure

go custom and clock the turbo housing. done and done

custom is the cleanest and best way to go. no reason to half ass it if you are spending the money 4 a decent top mount setup.
