depending on priority of the wastegate, either a 38mm (if good) or a 44mm (if not ideal)

tial44mm will get what you need. But the new 38mm are very nice and doesn't take as much room.

ok thanks! i will look into both.... i bet the 38 mm is what im going to go with because i dont want to over do the build with stock sleeves... i think i might have a little boost creep because the flange is on one of the tubes on the manifold.. not where all of the runners come together.... but it still should be ok...
