i got mine off jimster for a mnuch better price, dunno if he still has any kicking about?

Ive just noticed mini isnt quite this shape, how much was the one you got?

Edited by garrett3 on 30th Jan, 2010.

Yes I think I got 3 1/2 for that price.

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

actually just remembered i had themanifold flange off jimster and the exhaust one off Ben..

That's the wrong shape for a T2.

Can anyone help me source this part please?

Just noticed my housing has five locating studs (with one removed) and the elbow has four.

A fairly odd fit for a stock unit?

Like I said I am new to all of this.
I have done a few searches and the mirage does seen to use five. I will upload some shots.

Thanks for all of the help so far

EDIT: Pictures added



(Ignore that the top right stud has been removed)

What you need is some 10mm thick plate, a drill, a hacksaw and some blood

The T2 turbine outlet is the same as the GT1548 as depicted here:

Thanks, but mine doesnt look like that? The elbow does though...

A hacksaw and 10mm? you have soem stamina! lol

If the four holes in the elbow are equi-distant in a square, measuring about 2 1/2" across, then it is right.

Most peeps do not use the lower middle stud in your picture of the turbine housing.

I made my own, seen here:

Thats cool thanks for that.

Guess I'm going to start a wanted thread for the flanges then.

I will need:

Manifold to head flanges

Maifold to turbo flange

Turbo to exhaust elbow flange

OR do you know any links to these for sale? (checked ebay)

Thanks
