Default Turbo Flange Question

Ok guys so I was just wondering what type of flange this would be:



My problem is is that the seller told me it was a t4 which it obviously isn't but I have a t4 manifold. Do you know of any adapters that are out that could help me with this LARGE problem?

That is a Turbo flange for cars like the Buick Grand National and the T-Type. Mmm..well you can probably get a new exhaust housing for it. Do you know what brand of turbo it is? You are going to need to know the details of the turbo in order to get a new exhaust housing. On average they run about $100. Show some more pics of the intake and exhaust sides.

K, you need to call Precision and tell them what turbo it is and then they will sell you a new exhaust housing for around $100. The one you have I'm 99% sure is a bolt on turbo upgrade for a Grand National.

The T4 flang easier to upgrade in the near future. How much did you pick this one up? I'm sure the Master power T70 would run around $550-$600. They aren't that that to rebuilt also. My local guy wants $275 to replace all the seals and balanced. Not a bad deal.

First of all, you need to b***h out whoever sold it to you. I mean if it was listed as a T4 then it better be one. Either make him fully refund your money and you send back the turbo or get him to cover the cost to buy a T4 ehxuast housing.

We talked on the phone so now I have no proof. He says that he said "He though it was"

Oh well, lesson learned right? See what you can do about getting the right housing for it.
