Would many people here be interested in buying an adapter plate to enable you to fit a T2 or T25 turbo to a metro turbo manifold. They would be very accuratly CNC plasma cut from stainless steel. They would be around ?20 each, depending on demand.

Jimster,

go on then, I'd buy one off ya.

I'd get one just in case I wanted to go the T2 route at a later date.

I presume you would still need the bulkhead cutting for clearance? (mine's already done I was just thinking for those beginning projects)

Too many projects!

i dont think you do need to mod the bulkhead when using a t2 or t25, or do you seeing as you are still using a metty manifold and not the mirrage type. but i would like an adaptor plate please *smiley*

These are a well proven design (even if i say so myself)...

It angles the turbo relative to the manifold to ensure clearance for the downpipe - but it will still need tweaking to suit the turbo and manifold - but this won't take long at all!
Basically - it is ready to fit, with the a fair whack of the hard work and figuring out already done!

Come on then dave, its time to pull your finger out now! *laughing*

Just curious but what do you do in the way of a downpipe? Is it a modded one for another car or completely made from scratch?
