Default UK noob...

Hi all. I'm building a custom turbo manifold for my car. It's a log-type manifold and I need a Garrett T25 exducer flange/radius adaptor that'll allow me to fit the flat T25 flange to the round 1.5" O/D tube. Similar to this one (The rectangular thing on the right):


Anyone know where I can get one? No one makes things like this in UK and it's a proper **** even to get tubes at reasonable prices.

BTW I've already tried the companies mentioned in the FAQ section. They either don't do T25 flanges or won't ship to Britain.

Am i understanding this right - all you want is somet like a (very) short length of (say) 1.5" x 2.0" box section?

Have you tried http://www.metalsupermarkets.co.uk/
When I lived in the UK I used these guys LOADS of times.

Here are their locations:



Also check out ebay. Search for 'steel tube' and then narow it down to 'metal working' in the search field on the left-side of the screen. You'll find something there I'm sure.

Personally - I'd have thought it easier to 'knock somet up' out of four small flat pieces of plate. That's what I'd do anyway...
