Default Aristo DP = Mk4 DP.

Well after seeing my DP made at an local exhaust shop and paying way too much for just aluminized pipes I can see that a cheap Ebay DP for a mk4 would have bolted on and probably worked 100% with out modifications. EVEN IF it needed to be modified the hard part is done with the flange and the first bend which look identical.

So just giving a heads up to anyone that was in the same exhaust situation... Save your self the trouble and buy a china one to start the exhaust.

Last I read on SF it's the flange that doesn't fit, the rest is identical.

Something doesn't fit on the aristo DP from the mk4 because when you go single turbo you can't use a MK4 supra one you need one made for the aristo. There is some small difference that prevents fitment. That said that comparison is JDM supra to JDM aristo things might be different JDM supra to USDM aristo conversion lump.

maybe the flange is diff but it looks the same it's 3 bolt and triangleish shape. i'm sure it could be made to fit.... I think if you change the lower o2 sensor housing to the usdm one it will fit... I think the exhaust stall out on the second twin housing is smaller...
Since i don't have usdm i can't confirm but i have looked over my 2 aristo engines and looking at the pictures i've seen online it looks the same.

as or the single DP i dont see why it wouldn't fit they are pretty much universal and have the same bend. I'd say depends on the manifold you buy since they all angle the turbos diff.


anyways, good stuffs don't see anything but wheel / stereo posts here usually

I'll ask a couple of guys over on the aristo forum as I know two of the guys have manufactured their own DP's due to the supra ones not quite fitting right.
