Ebay items can't be gaurenteed and you'll end up replacing it cause it will break.

Also, are you running internal wastegate? If so that dump pipe won't allow the wastegate to operate properly.

yeah internal wastegate but it looks like I'm getting the dump pipe with the t28 :thumbsup:

Will save me a lot of fuking round it that happens

yeah, internal wastegate needs a dump pipe that uses the entire area of the flange before tapering down to a 2.5/3 inch pipe.

What dump pipe is it?

Andy at AKMotorworks is now selling Peakboost stuff and they are great quality! you could look into getting a manifold and downpipe combo?

Yeah peak boost was the other name i was thinkin off. Thanks VTi bOi.

Added several manifold gaskets plus shaving the block a little will fix this..

Thing is, how will the manifold seal with more than one gasket?

Thanks

Grind away part of the block... (Tounge of metal near the engine number)
Then if you still have clearance issues, use an extra flange.
Fit longer studs, get a 2nd gasket & a bare manifold flange from Hakan,
Space the exhaust manifold out from the head using the 2 gaskets & extar flange.
Around 8~10mm think should do the trick.
