Its for a pyro but you are better off mounting it in the exhaust manifold. There was a thread showing 200° difference between the DP and manifold with the DP being cooler then it really is. If the DP shows 1200° the manifold will be 1400°, way to HOT!

I agree with Brett, never seen one and that's not a stock DP anyway.

the guy i bought the truck from said it had a " lil bigger turbo". Maybe that down pipe was what he was talking about. The turbo is Garrett with a 110ar ,which im told is stock .

Turbine housing is 1.15AR stock. I think 1.10 is about right for the compressor size. Wonder if it's a D66 or something in there, or if he just threw a billet wheel in it and called it "bigger".

He might have put a new compressor wheel in and it became a bigger turbo on sale day.

Looks like the Banks down pipe I have on my truck. Glenn is correct that the plug is for the exhaust temp. My came with the Banks 1.0 exhaust housing as well.
