Hi All,

Does anyone know of anyone selling these in the uk? done some googling but can;t find much, maybe I'm searching for the wrong thing.

It's an adaptor to go rotated rather than having to change the entire up pipe etc...

Big sparks

Probably more of a bespoke thing to have made , however that does look like a good option to have so will keep an eye on this myself ;-)

I would speak to AS Performance - he does lots of bespoke stuff and would come top of my list of people who might do these

to be honest, as soon as you put the word "bespoke" in front of something that means its going to be expensive haha... There is a "Vendor" on NASIOC selling them for $250 shipped but they seem like they would be easy to make for somebody with a little patience.

Hi there

I think I've seen someone has made something similar over here while,i will try to dig out this thread and as above I would speak with Alyn@AS Performance or Gary@G-R Performance or John Goulding,he done few works for us which has been custom and he done great job on that

Hope this helps

Thanks,Jura

Boosted fancy making some more? Just one will do haha

Negative.
However you can weld your own up (you obviously have a welder to make the downpipe you will need too)
I made my flanges, however they are cheap on eBay.

Cheers mate... i am comfortable welding thats no problem. Suppose will just be a trial and error getting it to fit.

Ive been looking for the flanges and came across those but wasnt sure as they were mild steel? Anyone know where to get stainless ones?

boosted

Why you want stainless? Not an ideal material for that job

SAM-UK300

iTrader: (8)

Oh really? I had assumwd it needed to be stainless as thats what all the up pipes etc are made of. Mild steel is better for me anyway as easier to work with... what about rust etc? No problems?

boosted

MS will be more stable, a flange that thick won't rust.
The pipe itself can be stainless

Flanges ordered lets see what I can whip up.....

Shouldn't be a
Mission, oil return restricts where you can mount the turbo

I've sorted an oil return, but worried my oil feed braided line won't reach, anyone know where I can get an extender or a longer line?

boosted

eBay. I'm using an rs turbo one

I'm thinking more like £50, not £500.
But then I'm more a built not bought guy.
Same results, differnt approach

+1 haha I don't even need to do this... I just like tinkering with my car and doing little projects like this. get a good feeling when (if) it works and I have done it myself.

boosted

Lol, I know the feeling. I didn't need to put a quattro gearbox in my car, or put a holset on it, or megasquirt it....

Just realised you are in Harlow... I'm in Hoddesdon just down the road. small world

I am going to be doing something similar again, watch my project thread

boosted

Here's a good pic of what you will need to make something up

iTrader: (8)

Cheers mate. will keep an eye on the thread. What car do you haave by the way? will keep a look out for you around Harlow

Managed to make one of these up... quite happy with it... but in the end the downpipe was just too hard for me to make as it needed to navigate around my external wastegate which isn't in the ideal position for the rotated setup, would have needed to move that and couldnt be arsed haha. heres photos of my bracket... just incase anyone is thinking of doing similar and is wondering about angles etc...

boosted

Chinese turbo FTW 👍
Why not use the internal gate?
