Default Ramhorn manifold converted

I have, a spoolin performance ramhorn manifold..that is, the non ac.. Now i want to use it on a ac b series. Can i just route the wastegate/ make a elbow for wastegate.. Or the manifold won't work?

Obviously wastegate placement has nothing to do with it (unless its directly exiting to the compressor). The position of the turbo is what decides if it's compatible.

Has nothing to do with wastegate placement... Its the angle of the turbine flange... Ac manifolds place the turbo on the passenger side and angle the compressor towards the front of the car.. So it won't work... You can't hack the manifold up enough to make it work... Give it to me :-P

i was a little more detailed

and besides, when building an ac manifold, the runner design actually twists the collector, so its not like you can just re-weld the flange on
