Our turboback shouldn't have any codes when installed. Some customers get a P0154 code rarely, and it is a very simple fix just need to drop me an email [email protected]

Some cars, in higher elevations, come across this P0154 code just because their rear o2 is very sensitive.

I hate to say this, but I ended up using the stock donut because I could not for the life of me and 2 other people get this thing to line up with that flat one.
You need to connect at the turbo first, leave all other bolts out of the downpipe. From there line up the downpipe completely flush against the turbo and install the nuts. It is easiest with 2 people, someone underneath the car holding the downpipe up, and someone up top lining up the downpipe to the turbo. We designed it to have a very snug fit so we could use a flat gasket and do away with the terrible factory doughnut style connection.

Everything on mine seems lined up with no leaks. All bolts were tight. Flat gasket works fine. It was only the plug that was not connected that threw a code. Since its been plugged I have had no issues.

I tried this, but the holes would not fit over the notches of the factory connect properly no matter how many times I aligned it. I am not too concerned about it. Donut still works great.
