I cant find the picture somebody made to use as a template for a collector cut, anyone have it or know where it is?

it wasnt a collector cut, it was how to cut a pipe to be flat when placed against another pipe at a certian angle. it called tube coping.
and here it is (look in the stickies)

what's the particulars of your collector... I can have it drawn up in Auto-Cad here quickly and post you the unfolded shapes...

for instance....



this one is for a 38mm OD tube at a 20º inclination to the perpendicular of the flange. 4 of them obviously...

You can use this and just scale to match for any diameter tube, but the shape will change if the inclinations needs to change...

i'm sorry, but that paper cut out is going to make for an awful lot of waste for whoever uses it. anyone with half a brain will realize it is going to make the collector come down to a single point like a 4 sided pyramid and have to cut the end off it for the port to match the turbo flange. this might work if you have a circular port on the turbo flange you are using, but otherwise it isn't going to be much help. i'm working on a writeup for an alternative way to make them that works for me.
