So I ordered a Turbosmart 38mm external wastegate without thinking of everything. The manifold I'll get is the Fab9 EFR one. The options they have for external wastegates are only for v-band. The wastegate I ordered is the 2-bolt flange one on accident.. Does anyone know of an adapter that would work or have the skills to fab one up if I sent it to you? If nothing is out there I suppose I'll just sell it and buy the right one next time.

 

Return that wastegate and buy the correct one. Then buy a TSE manifold.

 

Guy was nice enough and I was able to return the wastegate. The trackspeed manifold doesn't have a v-band option :/. The 7163 I have has the v-band hotside.

 

Buy a standard t2 housing for the turbo?

 

My underdstanding is that the turbo is too big for a normal manifold. Only the tse and fab9 manifolds fit it right. Am i wrong?
