Need help with a custon downpipe for my T3 20g!

[Mo87NA]

Alright I'm in a little bit of a jam. I bought a cheap ebay manifold and a T3 -> T4 adaptor. Because of the way the turbo is going to sit, I can no longer use my Trust Turbo Elbow. I've been looking for a flange to possibly make my own downpipe, however, all I keep finding are 5-Bolt Discharge flanges and mine is only 3 bolts! So my question is basically what do I do, or where can I find a flange to match my TD06-20g? Here's a pic of my elbow and my turbo.

Edit: This is an old pic of the turbo. It's be polished and ceramic coated to match the elbow..

Have you tried www.atpturbo.com ?

 

[Mo87NA]

Yep...All i found were 5-Bolt discharge flanges...

Mo:
I missunderstood your email.

Is the smaller hole to the left of the turbine open or shut?

If its open, how did that elbow opperate?

Also, what are the dimentions of the flange with 3 holes?

 

[MK3Brent]

I need some more details.

You want to run an external wastegate with this turbo?

When you say 3 bolt, I'm guessing you want to make a perfect circle around the turbine exit and block off that smaller WG port on the bottom?

Is this correct?

 

[Mo87NA]

The small hole it shut. The turbo is an internally wastegated and I want to keep it that way. I just want to be able to make a downpipe to run on the ebay manifold, however, I can't find a discharge flange to match my exhaust housing.....

Mo - we're missing something here.

If the small wastegate hole is shut, then it can't be internally gated.

 

[Mo87NA]

Gotcha, my mistake. The hole is then not shut, because it is indeed internally wastegated, however, the Trust Elbow I have, does not cover the hole.....I've already confused myself.....Somebody bail me out here....

Thats what I thought.

Hm..... sounds to me like we need to find what that turbo originally came off of. Then we can find the elbow.

 

[Mo87NA]

Well it's a Mitsu based turbo, but it came from Greddy as part of a kit....

 

[MDCmotorsports]

And greddy supplies that elbow?

 

[Mo87NA]

I dont believe they do anymore. I tried searching google to see if I could find a flange, but I'm not having any luck. Come on Jon, you're good with this stuff, u know people....Hooke me up :1zhelp: :biglaugh:

 

[MDCmotorsports]

Mo, I meant about the elbow in the picture....

Also, your turbo is going on a ebay manifold correct?

Can we just run an external gate? That would make life alot easier!

Hint hint...

hahn racecraft has a 3 bolt.

This laser-cut, .250" thick mild steel flange features a 2.300" opening.

i think that is smaller than you need tho.

perhaps this is what you need?

Sorry Jon, yes Greddy supplies that elbow. Dave, how many times have you bailed me out" you're the man. Thanks again bro. Jon, could you make me an elbow from that flange?

Mo

 

[MDCmotorsports]

Mo: Yes I can. Doesn't solve the giant hole in your exhaust housing though or how we are goign to controll the boost.

BTW, you're goign to sh!t your pants when that adaptor comes.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TAKE HI-DEF PICS OF IT!

 

[dbsupra90]

*bows*

haha. glad i could help.

 

[Mo87NA]

Haha. Jon, I can't wait....I'm pumped to see it. I will def. take pics of it. I see what you're saying about controlling boost, but if you take a look at the elbow I currently have and the back of my turbo, the hole isn't being covered....But, that doesn't make sense does it?

The greddy turbo is internally gated, but has a 3 bolt exit flange.

Measure the distance between the bolt hole centers, and getting a flange will be easy.

 

[Mo87NA]

Thanks a lot for the help guys. Me and Jon@MDC figured everything out and he's gonna fab something up for me.
