Can you just weld a T3 flange on it(for a t3 turbo) and bolt it to an m20.

Is this manifold useful for an M20 turbo??
Moderator: martauto
It needs to be fitted upside down with some work done to the mounting plates, like making some of the holes bigger and some need to be opened out.
There is a "how to" somewhere which shows all the details. These have been used the world over to get some boost into a M20, however they're usually replaced after a while for something better flowing and performing. For a budget setup it'll be fine tho, it's just the space is tight and it's just not quite right when fited, does work and works well, so don't be put off by the negatives.
I would imagine any m20 turbo manifold has some issues, with mine I have to remove the turbo to change plugs in 3 & 4! Also I can't fit it too the head while on the car as you need to be quad jointed in the arm to do up all the bolts!
HTH, Mark.

I might have a bmw one available shortly which is ready to bolt on
Just needs a flange to match whatever turbo is going to be fitted
