Well after a month and a half, i finally got my revhard downpipe in the mail..
i took it out of the box and noticed that the flange wasy smaller than the exhaust housing of my t3/t04E 50 trim .. i asked a few of my friends but noone seems to know why... can anyone help me out?

here are the pics

 

Looks like u got the wrong exhaust housing on your turbo. The hole isnt' suppose to be there if i'm correct.

 

oh i just flipped the turbo 180 degrees.. but the flange does not match the exhuast housing at all.. i was told it was a t3/t04e..

 

thats a bigass exhaust side on your turbo...looks like someone fucked up somewhere (not you) and marked the wrong parts before sale.

 

Talk about a heart breaker!

 

maybe its a straight t4 housing? i du nno my turbo housing LOl

 

is that turbo internally wastegated? looks like it.....if so thats y it doesnt line up.

 

the housing isnt suppose to be like that...the pattern. the hole is suppose to be there tho.

lol might be but it bolts up to my t3 revhard manifold

 

thats wierd, never seen a big *** 5bolt like that before? isnt all 5bolt the same size? never seen anything like this...no way thats a t4 exhaust pattern. its a t3 t3/t4 alright, but wierd...

 

There are two styles of the 5 bolt housing, as you found out.

 

If you can't get a different housing I'll trade you a standard Garrett 5 bolt .63 housing for that bioch.

 

this is what i recieved from the seller..
"The regular turbo that you are talking are a ford type.
The one you got has a thicker more expensive housing that do not crack like the ford type."

now does anyone carry this flange?

 

I think thats the stock housing off a nissan or something.. I would send the turbo back.. you not gonna find a flange for it and if you get one made you still have to build your own downpipe..

 

if im not mistaken, you probly bought this off of ebay.
this housing is common to the Isuzu NPR "box/delivery" trucks.
i would also suggest that you will have a tough time finding a flange for that.
hope this helps

 

actually i got it at mjmturbos.com

 

On their web site they have flanges all over the place. I would ask them for a flange or to return the turbo for another one that would fit your downpipe.

this man is right your turbo exhaust housning is for internal wastgate and the downpipe flange is for a external wastegate housing. you may have forgotten to mention what type external or internal when ordering your turbo or downpipe. you see that extra lil hole that is for the internal wastegate.

 

I thought that all turbo's have that and you either block it with the downpipe or you can put on an internal wastegate?

no, my precision turbo 5 bolt flange did not have that internal wastegate hole.
