I finally pulled the stocker turbo off today and went to test fit the manifold and huge mofo turbo I have for it but I need to build a 1/2" spacer for it if it will clear the LIM then.If not I will need to build a new manifold and sell this one off.My Exhaust housing is a 1.32 and is against the LIM right now.I will try the spacer and if it works I will post pics in my cars thread.Heres the manifold pic.I think a T04B will work on it but my E is too big. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

What the hell? Look at that flange, not a good transition to the turbine housing. Becides the turbo flange being cut out wrong it looks nice. Maybe post a pic with the 1.32 sitting on it so we can see how bad it needs to be altered.

I wish I could the holes are 1/2" away from each other.I knew I should have traded a friend of mine his 1.15 housed T04E.Oh well bigger is better except on stock EFI like mine is minus the Rebic III

That might be your best option, cut the flange off and weld on a new one at a different angle.

At work next week of if it warms up I will cut out a space from some 1/2" plate I have here.IF this fails I might take it to a shop and get it modified.I really like that finish and want to keep it that way.Thats why I have a older HKS standard wastegate.Or else I would have gotten a 40mm Tial.
