The runner is were the exhaust travels from the manifold to the inner part of the turbo. There are two runners, one WG port. When you look through the flapper port, you are looking crossways at the runner.

I'll sell you my S4 exhaust housing that has a 33mm flapper with a machined seat, back cut and the inlet ported. All for the low low price of 100.00. Went with a GT3574 kit so no need for this anymore and most people don't want the entire turbo.
