Right form the seller Im getting the turbo from

"hey man. yes its an externally gate turbo. setup for a 5 bolt exhaust flange. it comes with the intake and compressor housing fittings"

That help?

I like the manifold looks and preforms and it does seem to be one of the newer braced ones, I may brace it from below also, but for the price I think its great.

And the snail is already ex. gate SWEET!

The manifolds work pretty good right but just need to be braced, is it that hard to brace them?

And will it work with this turbo.

Thanks


Its a t3 .60/.63 rebuilt of a supercoupe I believe, there externally wastegated right?

count the number of holes on the outside of the exhuast housing.

ooo...haha. i see what your talking baout. the 5 bolts in the picture are for the downpipe...the four bolt flange is your standard t3 flange. thats what mounts to the manifold. the part of the turbo in the pciture that is showing is what your downpipe hooks up too

---- i think im confusing you. the turbo isnt already externally gated...its setup for an external wastegate. meaning youll have to get one

The turbo isn't setup for ----. It doesn't have a flange so the wastegate will depend on what flange you buy for it. If you want an external wasteagte you buy a 5 bolt flange with the wastegate hole blocked off. If you want internal you buy a swing vlave flange and then you need to buy the proper actuator.
