Better yet, weld a new flange to it so it still can be removed. Just find a shop that has a good tig guy in it and bring him a flange. See Weirracing's for sale and see if he has anything that will work.

You can buy a steel mounting kit for that.

Does the air side of that turbo read .52? What are the specs on that T3? I hope you know you MIGHT have to get that turbo exhasust housing flange shaved. I had a problem where that indented circle messed me up. Had to take it to get it milled down. Rims. Fatty Fives or Webs off Acura Integras. Leave them stock color and just get Honda center caps. My $.02. Overall very cool. I hope you post again with a boosted thread. Good luck with the build.

yea its .52 a/r .48 turbing. im having a guy make me a dp and bend all my ic probably today. so he will probably just make a flange for it. or whatever he's gonna do. ill let him worry about that.

hey one question tho. to bolt the turbo to my adapter plate (T3 -> HF) its pretty hard to get some bolts to go up through the turbo into the adapter plate because you cant fit the bolts UNDERthe flange because theres no room. how did you do it, or did you even need an adapter plate?
