Howdy,

I'm looking for a busted, really don't care how as long as the mounting flanges are still intact, GT40/42 exhauste housing so I can first mockup my flange to weld to my headers and downpipe. Secondly this will be part of my Uh-Oh kit to go NA if the turbo busts on me. One of the nice things about a flash based sytem is I can create an NA tune then save it and then tune the turbo. If I ever decide that I need to pull the turbo, this will help me complete the exhuaste.

Thanks,

The GT40 and GT42 are not the same size.
Which do you prefer?
 
GT40, will be running a GT40R in 4-bolt since I don't want to wait for the Buick 3-bolt housings or pay for the specialized housing anyway. I was under the impression that those 2 were the same frame.

Same T04 Flange but the Exhaust/ Down Pipe Outlet is higher and bigger.
Does that make sense???
 
yes, bolts to the exhauste the same but the exducer bore is larger and has a higher centerline.

In couldn't have said it better myself, and I actuality I didn't! :D

My point is I did not want you to waste your effort and then the down pipe would not work. I wasn't trying to be a pain, it just came out that way!
