OK, so a two months have passes since the purchase of my KA and with new brakes and rotors along with a full catback its time to start thinking boost.Im very interested in Holset turbos because of their relatively cheap price for a more than decent turbo. yes i did read the artice on the Holset turbos and i have searched far and wide, so no flaming me about that.Now what im having trouble is pairing a turbo with its correct mani...being that i am new i could really use and help. im just looking for something that i can buy, mani wise, that will not need customizing to fit my turbo of choiceThanks in advance

Since Holsets are mostly used on OEM turbo diesel setups, I dont know if you can find an off the shelf KA manifold with that flange. If you like a manifold fabbed by a certain shop, ask if they'll fit a Holset flange for you. JGS (www.jgsturbo.com) doesnt list a Holset flange on their site, but they may be able to cook one up for ya.
