    Dont use GTR turbos unless they are at least N1 spec or R34, all others have ceramic turbine wheels and can't be rebuilt, but yes they will fit. S15 bb turbos are a good cheap upgrade if you are looking for used turbos.

    5 bolt dumps, rotate housings, mod wastegate brackets and they should go straight on.

    sorry but by upgrading to this setup is it necessary to upgrade the stock intercoolers or will it be alrite to run with?

    It will run fine with stock IC's and stock injectors/zorstect but you wont be able to run much boost and with bigger turbos that have more lag you will probably find you have less power that comes on even later in the rev range.

    It wont harm the turbos if you drive around with the stock set up if you need to save for cooler injectors exhaust ect but to really feel the power you need these modds.

    Or you can just send in your dead turbos for highflow. More power, better torque, every thing bolts back in, no fabrications required.
