i have a garrett gt2871r turbo that I bought a while back. I have already upgraded to the 18t and was wanting to upgrade again. ATP has a adapter too allow use with the stock manifold. I was wonder if it would be better to use this adapter or use the manifold they build (actually built for the c30 but usable on the 850). any input or advice would be greatly appreciated..... thanks.

Honestly, if you are going to upgrade the turbo again, I would upgrade the exhaust manifold and do an exhaust from the turbo back. I feel you will see more of a gain from doing this before upgrading the turbo again.

Well I believe I will take your advise FCP.... I bottemed in a speed bump at my wifes work(I couldnt go any slower) and did some damage to the exhaust system so im wondering what I should do now?

I am not sure about what you can get in Europe and Canada. I do know a lot of 850 guys on the VS forum are really into the OBX exhaust systems. I know we are going to sell it soon too. And you can't beat the price.

I paid twice that to have the exhaust I currently have (destroyed on a huge speed [mountain] bump) and it wasnt anything special.. thats a real nice looking system.. (found on e-bay for 348+68 shipping, american dollars) what will FCP be charging to supply a fellow with that system?

OBX goes for just over $400 shipped. comes with 2 downpipes. straight or angled flange. I love mine. that 2.25 cat back is got to be killing you.
