GT35/40 fit with an XS T04 manifold?

So, does anyone know if the GT35/40 will fit with the XS T04 manifold in an FD? Or is SS the best option?

The "GT35" side of the turbo is the turbine side, which implies it's a T3 turbine flange.&nbsp It will not fit the XS manifold.&nbsp The XS manifold is divided - I would recommend you take advantage of that and run a divided T04 turbine.

Ted is on the money.

GT35/40 turbo has a t3 footprint.
You'll need an adapter flange (HKS has one for about $100), but you'll need to check if there is clearance around the flange for bolts since the adapter flange has threaded holes for the T04 and T3 sides.

Either get a T04 based turbo or get another manifold.

I welded my adapter flange to my manifold. I can post pics soon, but it was not a good experience. I would get a manifold built for a T3 next time over.
