i really really.. really do not want to have to fab my own headers. awhile back i HELPED my buddy do his for his turbo mustang and it was a pain. i just cant seem to find any headers with the appropriate flange. is there an adapter plate i can purchase? i can find the flange itself just not an entire header. any help will be greatly appreciated.

oh and they are stock GN turbo's. 3 bolt inlet.

 

I did a twin turbo GN turbo setup a few years back, it blew up before I really got to lean on it. Regardless you can weld a short pipe from a typical flange to the GN flange or just build a large single turbo setup, which is done cheaply as 76mm turbos can be bought under $1000 these days and save the costs of buying double for every little piece needed.

 

i alreddy have the two turbo's tho. and ya thts wat i was thinking was just weld from flange to flange. bkuz ive never seen headers with them on there.

i personally did twins because i think it just looks sick. like Orr's. sticking thru the hood is just beautiful.

 

found from precison turbo 074-1017
3 bolt to t4 4 bolt
50 buks each so i can purchase t4 headers yay

 

If you have or are planning on buying a set of headers, you may ask if they can do the flanges for you. Besides that I would make your own adapters even if you buy headers. The reason for this is there's a chance that the turbos won't clear something if you use those adapters. Even if you make the adapters 90% of the work is done pretty much. Another option to consider would be flipped TPI Corvette manifolds. Add an intermediate pipe and they make for easy turbo headers on these cars.

 

Those 3 bolt to 4 bolt adapters didn't work on GN turbos for some reason IIRC when I looked into them.

 

oh alright thanks alot before i ordered them

 

try to find a shop to laser cut some flanges for you. Shouldnt be much money and easy to do. Just pattern it out and let them know the thickness. 1/4" should do

best bet is to fab your own...you can do it on the cheap with simple logs

 

ya im going to have to fab my own. well i myself am not but dirty boy is gonna fab them up for me. well now i can decide the exact spot i want the turbo's since its gonna be homemade. ill have to get creative.

 

thats the trouble..just gotta find placement. Get the turbos in your hand and move them around the engine bay. Decide where to put them and what has to go to clear everything.

 

ya my buddys mustang has them in the middle light spots where my brights are and it looks pretty sick. it just takes away brights but i dnt drive it but maybe 2 days a week.

 

The flanges for the GN turbos are easy they are 2.5" header collectors. Not a problem.

 

ya but i was trying to see if anyone knew any compnay that sold turbo headers to go to a 3 bolt instaed of welding my own but im going to fab my own up now anyway
