Ok i know this question has probably been asked a few times already but the search function is down unfortunately and i need help asap lol. My buddy just bought a turbo kit but they sent him the wrong turbo. he called the dude and had them send him the right turbo and they were supposed to send a prepaid box for him to ship the turbo back. Its been a year and he hasnt received the box. he sold me the turbo and i know its off a older dsm. all i see on the turbo is TD05 not sure what size it could be either 14b or 16g possibly. But my question is does anyone know where i can buy a turbo manifold that will fit this turbo? I plan on using it on my b18b1 with gsr tranny in a 1995 honda civic. any help would be appreciated.

if it has the mitsu inlet, i boubt that you will find a manifold to fit a honda with the mitsu inlet.

maybe look at http://www.homemadeturbo.com/

It exists, I've seen it, but I dunno if that factory is still even in business... Another issue is clocking the compressor / turbine housing to fit properly, especially if it's running an internal gate... Just pay the few hundred for a better suited turbo...

pictures could always help too.

More than likely you would have to buy an adapter from a T3 manifold to the flange you have. One of the sponsors on here sells those adapters. When you decide later to get a better turbo then you'll have your T3 flange ready.

There are a couple guys there who could do a modest log or splog style design, top quality workmanship at very fair prices. Also, ramhorns and the like although that's overkill for the sort of turbo being discussed. I would recommend any of the following individuals, as they can provide vouches and pictures of their workmanship: Randy "eville140" Heinlein, Aaron "Weirtech" Weir, or Dave "CSaddict" Callahan.


It is my understanding that a number of china castings are available with just about any flange pattern, some of those seem to work well after you port match them. However, with how quality control varies wildly between design and production runs, picking up one of those manifolds is a last resort. Buyer beware.

thanks for all the info lol these are the pics of the turbo.







and yeah if its gonna be that much trouble i might just buy a better turbo lol the only reason i planned on using this one is cuz i got it so cheap. dirt cheap lol so i wanted to see what i could do to make it fit.
