Default T4 to T3 turbo Adapter??Help!

I recently got T4 turbo manifold. I am currently running a T3 60-1 turbo. I have search and was able to find only two adapter plate made for the T4 toT3.
I found this on BMC website:


And found this on ebay:

Anyone have any experience with them? Are there any draws backs from either one? Help me out!

what I would do personally is just get a T4 housing for your 60-1, otherwise, you will have to most likley have to cut the flange off of your mani and weld on the first adapter flange, and you might have clearance issues with that second one depending what manifold you have.

Buy the bmc one and bolt it to your manifold to hold them together and then weld the seam between the adapter and manifold. Resurface the new flange to get rid of the inevitable warping and you are good to go. Any fab guy should be able to do it for you for $50 or so. The ebay one will make your turbo sit to low or high if you use a top mount.

That really sounds good. I think I might really do this. Thanks.

it would be cheaper and better to just buy a new exhaust housing.
