Hell, only $75 plus whatever it costs to ship. Maybe some modification will be required, but IMO that's ideal. Instead of a sensor in that hole you could have an external wastegate. The pipe bends are clean for smooth flow. The flange might even fit a T3. The question is, is it too long? What about the placement of that sensor bung?

What you would have to do is cut off the flange that is on it, and weld on a flange that will mate up to any turbo you want to use. personally, I would go with an internal wastegate (how much boost are you really gonna be running on your stock block?) and keep the 02 sensor...you'll find that you may need it. But otherwise, great idea you had there, maybe in a month or two I'll try it out.

Weird, it says B-series motors. That does look like one for our D17's though. The bolt pattern looks like ours. $375.00 for the standard one and $475.00 for the nickel plated one. Not bad.
