do you know if a t3/t4 flange will fit the turbo if not what will? Same with the wastegate 38mm or 40mm?

Get an HF manifold and an adapter plate if you want to go that route. You have a PM tho because some of my friends from Forks may be able to give you a hand...

The adapter plate you need can be found on Ebay. It mates the HF maniflod as stated earlier to the T25 talon turbo. I bought mine there and it was about $50.00

I haven't looked for one there lately but try it.

Good Luck. and if you decide to get rid of that T25 let me know cuz I have all the other stuff.

Peace
