So i dont wanna buy a turbo flange for my kkk k26 turbo for 80 bucks but i found the flange on ebay for 20 bucks.

Has anyone tried the ebay flanges?

oh yeah the maker is obx-r

Post a link so we can get a better idea. I'm not a fan of OBX stuff.

weir tech sells flanges for like 25. hit him up he used to be a sponsor here before xenocron sold this site

 

He doesnt have the k26 turbo flanges

 

he will make one for you if you send him the gasket. and his ---- is top notch. search this site for the "my turbo flange crumbled" thread

 

ahah oh my that sucks! but thanks man I will be asking weirtech then

 

I would be sure to make something to bolt them to when you weld them, outside of that and not putting to much heat to them while welding I think you should be OK. I'm not a big fan of OBX but these seem thick enough that if you are careful, you should be ok. I will warn you in advance that if you crank up the juice when welding them it probably will still warp so be sure you know whats up.

 

I'm sure this is a better option coming from turbof22a and a flange that a real person makes instead of some poor kid in china

 

hahah true that!
