Racing Beat only lists a 2.5" flange, Turbonetics doesn't list one, TurboCity doesn't list one HELP!!!!! For a T-18 Hitachi, Stock 87TII

 

I'm struggling to see how you could have a 3" flange and still retain the stock bolt holes...maybe i'm just not using my imagination...

 

Corksport has a 3" DP...

 

the hole in the turbo isnt 3" you gotta make an adaptor, or xerox what you want and send it to k2rd and have them do it

You have to dimple the pipe at the bolt locations, I may end up having to use a RB 2 1/2 flange and a 2 1/2" x 3" reducer

RB also has the 3" DP

 

yah just get the rb downpipe

where at? all I can find is a 2.5" DP under exhaust components...

 

3" DownPipe

I just got off the phone with RB, they use the 2 1/2" flange on the DP referenced above. I ordered it. I have an Idea!!! I'll post it as soon as the right parts arrive.

 

I'm not at home right now, does anyone know the stock opening diameter and the bolt circle diameter?

 

You mean the stock exhaust that bolted to the turbo?

Or the turbo outlet?

The turbo outlet is 2" However it has 1/2" that can be ported out to match the 3.15" DP that RB sells.

The stock piping is 2 1/4" inside

outside is 2 1/2"

 

Actually I had a Stock DP in the truck. Stock ID of the DP Inlet flange is 2 5/16". Thanks for the response GLHS. The gears of Banzai Are turning fast n furious right now....More to come

 

I think I measured the carbon and the pipe...

 

I can only imagine the amount of smoke going in that room right now!!! hehehehe

 

At least it's smoke and not....STEAM FROM COOKING UP RICE!!!, like at your house! LOL J/K gotrice:
