WTF??? Since when did OBX make something that's actually performance? And 15 people are already bidding on it too! Does anyone know what type of turbo will fit on that manifold?

It sure looks like a T04 flange to me.. The flange looks odd though, like the ports are not quite centered to the bolt pattern and the pattern is twisted on the flange face...Factory seconds??
Nice looking peice but I wonder what the turbo would end up sitting like, crooked or pointing towards the inner fender..Max

It actually looks a lot like my greddy t78 manifold. The Flange sits at a similar angle. It's also divided with individual wastegate runners.

I also noticed the flange ports looking a little off center.

Whoa! Where did you get it for $218 shipped. That's a very good deal. I'm planning on going single too with my FD. The manifold looks good. What kind of wastegate does it support?
