what i mean is the flange were you bolt onto the turbo manifold. I'm buying a turbo manifold with a t3 flange. Will this fit my turbo, it's a Garrett t3 a/r 42. 48. I know its from a chrysler.

The chysler flange is a goofy mother ******, yes the turbo is a t3. But the inlet flange has an ofset rectangular pattern. I think 3 line up fine, but the other one is way off.

I got the weirdest T3 on the planet. It had the normal 4 bolt pattern, and square inlet flange, but it had a countersunk circle around the flange, which overlapped the manifold's rectangle. Really weird, hard to describe. Ebay actually has one listed, i'll find the linke and put it here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1876176082

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1876715320

I ground down the entire thing till it was flat by hand to make it work w/ my drag manifold. WEIRD AS ----. anyone else seen one like this? Funny thing is, both these guys seem to be selling the SAME turbo, and both look (are) exactly like mine, to the tooth. Same exhaust housing, same compressor housing, etc. Except, one of these guys claims it's a .42/.48 turbo, and the other guy says .42/.68 turbo. Weird, but the flange on the exhaust side is the same as mine, as well as the wastegate setup and exhaust outlet. Anyone seen it before? I'm curious as to where it came from, and it's true specs.
