Question stock turbo flange

im planning on installing my old hybrid turbo on a 95 eclipse cause the car needs a new turbo and this is a nearly brand new turbo i took off my S4 TII..the only problem is that the rx7 turbo has a crazy stupid flange with the offset bolt on the one corner so i have to build a custom manifold...does anyone know where i can buy just a flange that would fit the turbo from the rx7 so i can build off of that?

im not much help, but wouldnt it be easier to buy a manifold then just hack of the flange and weld on teh S4 flange? We have a metal place here that made me some flanges for like $20 each or so. I would call around to some machin/metal shops in your area

Sure you can, its just teidious and not that ****-hot.

Here's what was done on an old S4 mani...

But having one made up isn't a big deal either, whichever floats you boat man.
