that’s a prototype.
the full-race kit comes with a tial 40mm…which is not a rayjay flange.

someone further explain what u two are talking about???
ray jay = diamond-shaped 2-bolt flange.
some people (few and far between, but some) have experienced this type of wastegate flange not being the best (leaking, etc). a 3- or 4-bolt flange is usually a better idea for higher boosted applications…but then, if you’re boosting high enough that it might be a problem, you have already upgraded to the tial 40mm wg, in which case it’s not a problem as this gate is already so equipped.
like so:
that’s the 40mm. note the square flange, with 4 bolts.
thats a tial 46mm:)
this is the tial 40mm flange
bah…lol you’re right. i went back and re-read the straight T4 kit’s contents and yeah it’s the 46. the regular FR kit does come with the 40mm tho.
:down: to me not going to bed when i should have. 
btw…the flanges are still both 4-bolt.

that’s a weaksauce manifold.
now THIS is a manifold.
heh [/B]
hey my friend made that manifold
who’s your friend?
geoff from full-race. the same guy that made my manifold in a couple of posts above.
geoff doesn’t make 'em. he just designs 'em. 
he has a welder (lol i dunno if that means he keeps him in the basement chained to a post or what) who does it.
but the question is…do you know geoff’s last name?
raicer
and are you sure he doesnt make them, because when he lived in jersey over the summer i went over his house and he was making one and there were a few others laying around. he was tack welding the manifolds together and then taking them to a great tig welder to get them welded.
maybe now that he is in AZ he has other people making them, now that he has full-race all set up.
lol i know internet ay, i was just joshin’ ya.
geoff designs and probably constructs the manifold’s basic shape, i was just being a picky little bastard.
hell yeah:D
