anyone got pics of their adapter plate to put an evo8 16g on an hf mani? i searched as best i could, came up short. can get that turbo cheap to compliment my cheap project. any help would be appreciated.

assuming the evo8 16g's are the same as the older style 16g's, they're flanged the same as a 14b; so a hf to 14b adapter should work.

hmm, i just remembered that the evo's use "twin scroll" turbos, so they could be flanged differently.

yeah the turbine intake is divided, i was hoping to see an example of someones work to get an idea of how everything works.

an evo 16g sits opposite of the dsm/evo1-3 16g's, when you look at the exhaust housing on teh turbo its doesnt even resemble a normal 16g, so you wont be able to use a 14b braket.

im curious as to if honda guys using this turbo need to machine the adapter plate around the "twin scroll divider" section, or if i can just cut a hole around the entire turbine entry. i dont have a pic handy but the evo8 16g has two trapazoidial (is that a word?) ports on the turbine side for quicker spool times. so should i match the gasket exactly or just cut it wide open? id like to make it spool efficiently as possible, especially putting it on a mucher smaller motor than a 4g63. i plan to use it on a d16a6.
