Yea... I think you can use a 2.5 clamp without much issue ... you just need a 2.75 flange.

I have to order a clamp yet.. and was planning on cranking out a flange on the lathe to save myself a few bucks (going to attempt to implement a adapter so I can go to my 3inch charge pipe too).

Anyone have a place that would sell the clamp really cheap?

Your build is coming along real nice man. And congrats to you and the misses.
Any chance that holset can work with the cast manifold?

I ended up selling that VGT Holset, and went with an HX35. I'm still waiting on the coupler I need.

I really can't wait to boost this thing with a stage 4 clutch

that car is too new to be on HMT, take that ---- to H-T , the turbo is too big and and the manifold is too shiney. it don't beng here. too much like h-t you to replace it with a sink trap, and put a ebay turbo.

naw! just giving you ---- like you did me in my thread.
