How is this compatible with a 7MGTE?

It is a 7M manifold. The other two runners are hidden behind the flange.

hmm

looking at the Turbo flange.. i don't think so as I only see 4 inputs (clover leaf).

The pictures I seen from Ron R for his design, you can clearly see the 6 holes merging at the turbo flange.

This has already been posted before, several have confirmed it's for a 7M... the runner spacing does look a bit far apart, however.

Ditto on that, I read one of the posts concerning that exact style manifold. It was indeed confirmed a 7m mani. Search for it and you will find the opinions others had on it...

hmmm. Well if it does fit, I take it that this is for a ct-26 style turbo with internal waste gate? Is this that much of an upgrade to the OEM manifold?

I don't know of anyone personally that is running this manifold. If someone has it, please let us know.

Edit: I do believe that the holes for the exhaust studs are off on this and need to be relocated, which in turn may compromise the integrity of the manifold (not to mention possibly messing with the exhaust manifold gasket's ability to seal correctly). Also, the manifold does look to be made for the CT-26.
