EVO 16G twin scroll inlet flange source?
I've got a really big 16g turbo from an evo 5 which has a twin scroll turbine inlet flange. I've done some serious searching and sent a few emails to people, but thought i'd ask on here whether anyone knew of a good source?
The flange is like a T3 twin scroll flange but a parrallelogram rather then rectangular. If i can't buy one, i'll have to make one, but without access to a plasma cutter, its going to be a pita.
There seem to be a few manifolds around, but it seems if you are rich enough to own an evo, diy isn't part of the ownership package. Oh, i also found ssautochromes manifold manufacturer.
I'm getting the bits together for a ghetto up-pipe.

I've got one dodgy picture and an even dodgier mspaint rendition. Haven't got the turbo in front of me yet, but when i do i can take a better quality photo.
As you can see, its kind of an odd shape. Certainly not a standard T3 style. I'm making my own manifold, so that doesn't bother me too much. Just don't like the thought of cutting thick sheet metal with the tools i have at my disposal.

I could do the same, but again, it wouldn't be cheap for just one. I have heard full race are able to supply them. Perhaps i can have a ghetto fab full-race manifold Damn those evo owners and their big wallets.
I have found a uk supplier seemingly. A mitsubishi specialist.

LSD has them. I sent them my gasket from an evo 8 about two months ago so they could make one for me. Im actually in the process of using an evo 8 on my accord. It's no fun. the thing is backward from a normal turbo and the o2 housing is huge and you can't clock it.
