anyone make these ? looks like a pretty simple plate and i can cut one out but seeing what's there before i spend a few hours cutting and drilling ... thanks!
i was a bit concerned about this because i swapped an ALH into a B4 and used the 1z manifold with a hybrid k03/4 and had to clearance the block and turbo slightly...but fortunately the GTB exhaust housing angles slightly away from block so clearance shouldn't be an issuewill the comp housing clear everything?
I cobbled together a t25 adapter to mock up and fit a TD04 on one of my spare blocks and it didnt clear the block... when i flipped it, it didnt clear the intake...
Thats when i decided to buy the 1.6td manifold that angles away from the engine... and there the project stalled.
thanks for the offer kooya, i have a bhw mani here and a ryanp adapter but want to use a 1z manifold to keep the turbo low and close to the blockI've got the AFN manifold and some plates for templates you can steal for a while to make your plates if you want Jimbote.
I'm not using them at the moment, all I ask is you pay for shipping both ways and maybe make me an extra set of copper gaskets if you make them for yours.
