Anyone know where i can get a adaptor plate which would fit in beetween my exhaust manifold and turbo?
Reason being that i got a big turbo. It will nearly fit, but the compressor housing touches the branch on the very right of the manifold, so i cant make the turbo fit on the connection. (Making sense?)
So what i need is the manifold with a "sanwich plate" on and then the turbo will connect.
If anyone can understand what hell the im going on about, then your help would be mucho appreciatio

If you only need a mm or two this might do it.

Top one should do it. Cheers mate
i'm sure you can get something like that made up over here instead off getting one shipped over just take the manifold and turbo into metal works place and ask if they can make up the plate and get it welded to your manifold

I know wot you mean, but i don't really fancy taken the turbo apart.
One angle of the manifold could be machined by few mm and the same thing could be done to the housing. Those few millimeters there will give you enough clearance in the place where you have a problem
