    Wastegate adapter?

    Does anyone know of a Wastegate adapter, to go from OEM flange to v-band or anything?

    I have a Tial wastegate and I just tig welded a 1.75" vband straight onto it, using an adapter would take up a lot of room IMHO.

      What filler rod did you use for cast?

      Cheers

        316 rods, not the correct rods but it works.

        I also welded a 3" vband onto the exhaust housing which required some peining with a hammer to stop it cracking.

          There would be plenty of room if you switch stock WG to a Tial MVR, so a tiny adapter will fit no problem. This if you dont wan't to destroy your expencive manifold.

            I don't think space should be an issue; the wastegate and heat sync are > 180mm in height.
            Maybe I'm thinking about this wrong, but I was hoping to make downpipe fabrication a little easier. The flex-pipe on the stock setup seems to be a major limiting factor. Like everything has to be built around that piece.

              Yes, this is what I'm after. Is that an off the shelf piece?
