    Ah i see, that makes more sense Is it a conventional shaped flange or a unique fitting? Well its essentially a T15 sized turbo so would be pretty small. Aren't you just after a replacement or are you upgrading?

    im building..

    145 2.0.. JTD manifold is a bolt on fit to the petrol head, i wanted to fit a t28 or equivalent in guts.

    just a thought, can cast be welded reliably?

    think you'd need to get your hands on a manifold, seen a couple of different 3 and 4 bolt designs on the GT1749V depending on the application

    Cast can't be welded reliably, not like steel!
