Yeah the RS500 style T4s used a T3 flange.

Try Cr Turbos mate, they have spacers on the shelf iirc, and they're availble in different thinknessess. I've got a pair of 20mm ones from them, just need longer studs/bolts to hold the turbo to the manifold.

Hows this Tony ? You'd obviously need to blank off the external take off hole

yeah ,thats the kind of thing , i was hoping for one about 25-30mm thick , i think those T3 to T3 ext flanges maybe a bit thicker than that .
Good advice on asking CR tho ,i'll bell Vince in the morning .
