Saab Turbo Downpipe
 
I have a T3 turbo of a late model Saab 900 and I need to know what exhaust outlet flange to use. I have a DRAG downpipe and its got the standard T3 flange on it but it seems to be too small. Anyone?

Is it the wastegate housing with an inverted flare?, or is it the wastegate housing that's flat? You have to gave a more gung ho attitude, dude. What I mean is, if you have to make some ----, you have to make some ----, and chances are nobody else is gonna do it for u. I had the same turbo, and had to get a 90, cut it at an angle, cut the flare near the end, put it on a level surface with the floater part on top of it, weld it, and then, position, measure, (cut) and weld, then work the rest of the dp from there.

If it's the flat type, I have 3bolt dp ill sell u. Good luck :thumbup:

Did you physically remove that from a saab?
Turbine housing might not be stock. Mercedes possibly.

I didn't but I know the guy who did and I've seen the car at Pick-Your-Part lol Im gonna try to cut out the metal between the outside of the flange and the bolt holes to see if it works, if not, I am prolly just gonna get some carbon steel plate and make an adapter to weld it onto the old flange.
