Flange Questions

[96WhiteTSi]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help me out here. I bought this Dre Spec turbo and its does not have the "stock" car flanges on it for exhaust manifold or o2 housing. Maybe someone can tell me what they are.

It appears to be t3/t4.

They are pretty standard, just not standard for a DSM. There are adapters from DSM manifold to T3 out there. Turbine outlet, probably going to have to make/get a custom down pipe.

I figured I would have to get a "custon" down pipe...

but the problem is, I have the stock mitsu exhaust mani, how am I soposed to get that t3 flange up there??? drill and tap? Or is there a company thats makes these spacific manifolds?

In this day and age of cheap ebay crap? You can get an adapter for less than a manifold.

That turbo isn't worth getting one, but there are tubular manifolds that will take a T3 flange. They range from $500 some odd to more than $1k. Dunno if there is a cast mani, but why bother?

Oil and coolant lines might be different too.
