T3-T4 flange

[smokin247]

So I ordered a t3 manifold for my t4 turbo thinking an adapter would be easy to find since it's such a simple piece. From what I found my choices are ED for $150!?! or getting one off eBay. Is there any companies making these for a realistic price? Or am I stuck figuring out the measurements and having one made? Which might be the better option considering I'd like it cut for an external gate.

If you have some tools you can make one for around $5. Or you can call cds i believe they have them for around $50.

I got mine from a guy on eBay. Very very nice piece and I had it in like 3 days.

I tried four different ones from ebay and they all sucked. Ended up making my own.

Just found the invoice, the place I found on eBay is custom fab shop in Louisiana. It was 50 bucks.

Just ordered one of these^
seems like a good part and it's 3/4" thick compared to 1/2" like the others on eBay. I'll post a pic and how it fits when it comes.

Just received my t3-t4 adaptor and it looks decent, except for the t3 bolt holes cut into the passages on the t4 side. To me it looks like it will cause problems with the gasket and won't let it seal properly. What do you think?

If the pics are too small I will upload larger ones..

should be fine, i had to counter sink 2 of the holes in mine, but i didn't go that big......

Return the manifold and get a t4.
T4 manifolds flow better and spool faster then t3 with adapter.

Im starting to think that's the better option. I was trying to save some money but its backfiring.

Let's get on a trade. I have a 3rd gen T4 and needing a T3. Pm me with what you have.

I bought that one and sent it back. Those holes are countersunk too much IMO.

Just get a t4 manifold. You will be a lot happier in the end.

Originally I was going to order a steed speed but you can't get the wastegate port on the bottom to run flipped for twins. Yet. Maybe I'll call them directly and see if they can help me out.

You get a straight t4 with the gate.

I haven't heard much about fitting twins with a straight manifold in a 2nd gen. Plus I have a 63 secondary with the 90* outlet which could be a pain.

Its what you use if you want a gate on the manifold.
