Well PISS. I ordered an exhaust flange for a gt15 from atpturbo HOPING it would work and unfortunately...it's smaller than my turbos output.
WHERE can I get a flange for this turbo???

way different. gasser k03 hs a round output. I have plenty of those

This thing has been a nightmare to find a flange for. Prothe sales one but it's a terrible for internal wastegate valve flow.

EXACTLY what I thought of doing. Kinda making a divorced wastegate setup. His setup is $65 though...I really just need the flange. Doesn't fall in my "budget."

Does it matter if its n/a? I have access to three diesels with factory down pipes. 2 NA 1.6 and 1 Mk 1 Jetta Diesel (Its a coupe!) There is a junkyard here in Fl. Ill ask him what he wants for em. Ill pull it for ya and ship it. On yer dime of course. Or maybe if ya have a spare TD IP lyin around, Ill handle it in exchange. PM me if yer interested.

yup. I'm just going to buy a prothe downpipe and reweld it. No big deal in the end.
I'm thinking I may change course just a bit. I have a known good 1.6 NA outback that ran but had a blown headgasket. I'm thinking of pulling the head, tossing in a metal headgasket (best place to get one?), ARP studs and then tossing it back together. I like the 1.5 but I wanna get something moving with that 1.6 too. To damn many N/As around here!

man that thing is tits mcgee on there, u probably won't be able to see anything behind the valve cover aint. hell ull end up with enough room for an air/water intercooler above the intake. with the full spearco kit the factory snorkel box gets used with their air box above the intake manifold, it looks stock unless u look under the intake box.

Well yesterday I took the diesel off the road and returned Blue to daily driver status. It's wild going from a 60hp car to a 260hp car...with a/c...:laugh:
Anyway...made a little progress today after work. Really the only big thing to do is build a downpipe but I'm waiting on a flange now. Space is limited due to the shifter but I will manage.
Here's a pic of today's progress.

Please excuse that out of place blue boot. I'm just using left over crap from the 20V build.

Should be ready to go as soon as the oil pump comes in and I fab up a downpipe.
