14b turbo on BLOX Mani?
I was wondering if a 14b turbo will bolt up to a BLOX Manifold? I heard there is a DSM adapter plate or something along those lines. Anyone heard of those? Also, what about a block off plate for the wastegate, as my 14b is internally gated as you probably know. I tried the search function but couldn't find anything about the 14b used in conjunction w/ teh BLOX mani. I appreciate any help.

well obviously it won't bolt up without an adapter plate. but also i'm not sure about the rest of fitment because it's a DSM turbo vs a garrett.

Even if you fab up an adapter plate to mount the 14b to the t3 bolt pattern, you'll still need to consider that the mitsu might not clear the fans due to the internal gate actuator. Downpipe might also be a bit more difficult than a t3 turbine housing.

True, but the guy hasn't stated whether his comp housing is sitting on driver or passenger side or whether or not he's attempting to retain AC...

Ok, my name is changed since it hurt your feelings so much. W/ that aside. I'd like to keep the A/C if at all possible, but not a big deal. I've got a guy that can make me a custom downpipe, so that's not really an issue, other than him doing the work on it.
And does anyone know where I can get an adapter plate? Or the wastegate block plate?
I appreciate any help.

Re: 14b turbo on BLOX Mani? (steelies)
keep the BLOX manifold, its good.
sell the 14b for enough to get you another JY turbo... Saab T3 or Thunderbird T3's would bolt right up and you should spend less and pocket some money or break even.
when your friends ask you can show them or tell them you have a Blox Mani with a T3. I think it sounds smarter

Yeah I second that the BLOX manifold is good. I've seen people locally use them all summer and no problems yet.
Yeah sell the 14B and go get something bigger. A turbo off of a late 80's SAAB 900 works great. Its a T3 and quite bigger then the 14B. It will also just bolt right up to your BLOX manifold without modifications.
