Default WELD ADAPTER PLATE?

should i weld my adapter plate to the t25 exhaust housing. if not i have to bore the holes and run like studs to fit the housing to the plate. i know in the future i might kick myself in the ***, but let me know if there is a nother way to go about mounting this damn thing

lol, I'd hate to see the day when he asks "should I kill the president?" on some anti-government forum.

It will work, but the housing is cast iron (usually a nickle mix), and will also heat up well over 900F. Make sure its welded with a heavy-duty mig or tig machine.

Your retarded. ---- that hogwash. Crank up amps and turn down the wire speed all the way down. I'd weld the adapter onto the manifold...not onto the turbo. You cause of all those turbos with HF flanges. Atleast with a T25 flange you have a pretty large selection of turbos to upgrade to.
