ok so it seems kinda weird im sure, but i was just thinking how i could clear my bmc with my T3/T4.....(disclaimer: this is just a thought i had and have no plans of actually doing this, but it seems like a "possibility")

Backstory, ish, i am building a ka24de-t bored .020 over, knockoff T3/T4 .50 trim, knockoff mani, and there is NO WAY it will clear.

What i was thinking is getting a T25/T28 manifold and an adapter for the flange to mate it with the turbo? now the problem i see with this is possible flow restrictions because the T25/28 is smaller?
Also it would have to be inverted which would make it way high and towards the front alot.

buy a real manifold. you will run into many many many more issues by trying to make your idea work. for the price of your knockoff t3 mani, a knock off t2 mani, and the flange adapter you could have a JGS manifold.

^ oh god... that sig is sublime.

OP, you can also buy a mig welder and make your own.... then make two more for you're friends.

good luck with the build... dont wast you're money on an adapter... seams can create boost leaks.
