Ok so recently i bought a t3/t4 turbo, t3/t4 manifold, bov, wastegate
and intercooler.

The bov, wastegate, and intercooler all fit just fine and or can be
adjusted to fit.

But the turbo doesnt fit on my downpipe, nor does it fit on my manifold?
My mainfold fits just find onto my head but idk what to do with this turbo
besides sending it back?

Is there like any kind of flanges i can buy?
Ive searched allllll over the internet and cant find anything, been
on here for about 3 hours now lookling for information.

Can someone help me out?
Any help would be greatly apprecaited.

was fillleedd with nasty brown oil.

I think you have a divided T4 flange on your manifold, and a T3 flange on your turbo. Basically it's like putting a square peg in a round hole, they aren't made for each other.

You may be able to find an adapter to go between the turbo and manifold to make the two flanges work, but I've never really looked into it. And it will also move your turbo out farther.

If it really came all together as a plug and play kit, I would try my hardest to send that shit back and find something else without all the hassle.

Whoever you picked up the kit from, explain to them your situation. If it in fact is an error on their part, they should honor sending to you the right turbo. Beware, they may ask that you send the wrong one back first and do not let me tell you to pay for shipping.

^ not all of us have a tig/mig welder on hand though and arc welding sucks for everything
and yes, that adapter is what you need to make it fit. i would make sure you have enough under hood space to make the turbo fit first though because it looks like the adapter raises the turbo about an inch
