You know I never measured mine before I passed it on, maybe if Ben reads this he will pop it open and share with us.mattG wrote:what sort of measurements would a t3 and a t3/t4 be ?
I think Ant may have measured his T3 before install.

Looks awesom for somthing you knocked up in the garden mate 
It also looks like you can get at the plugs with the turbo in place (possibly with a U/J)

nah i can get at plugs fine without UJ, wastegate is 2 inch clear of mounting, all i need is custom oil cooler pipes and spin the housing 180, the oil cooler is being relocated so i would need them anyway. im mounted IC but just need to finish bottom support then ill post pics, front end is quite modded, alot chopped out and abit of framework. only annoying part is I forget about the aircon rad, im not sure where im going to put its yet but im not going without aircon

He he, taken care of thatArgos wrote: The big thing with turbo manifolds (esp. cast iron ones) is to have extra large mounting holes.
The central lower hole on each flange is a fairly close fit, +0.4mm if I recall, with the rest getting progressively larger from there on out
