t2 adapter plate
Turbo Mini Forums

hey guys, ive recently had made an adapter plate using a drawing found on here, and also have done a search regarding fitting it.
however i came to fit it and buy searching other posts found that i need to mount it on a slight angle on the manifold?
when i offer it up to my manifold the only way that i am able to clear the old studs that i chopped off is to place it at a large angle, this will then throw the turbo out?

So is what im saying sound right?
if so would tilting the turbo cause any problems internally?
cheers

Mines got the square hole in the plate cut at an angle so the plate goes on square

Metro turbo weekend driver,Mini turbo in the making again!

does your turbo sit at an angle tho?

My T2 sits at an angle. it's no problem with regards to running.

you can make out the position of the top 2 new manifold studs in this pic if it helps give you an idea.



and this one shows the angle my T2 sits on the metro manifold

thats brilliant thanks guys, ur pic has helped me with my other problem.
with the actuator what have you used to mount it, looks like a neat job?

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...

It's a Nissan one Cherry / Bluebird I think.

Meastro / montyno-go diesel turbo one is easy enough to make fit too IIRC.
