HELP! Single Turbo 1g-gte owners! Tue, 26 November 2002 08:23 Go to next message
HELP! I need to know how people who have converted the 1g-gte into single turbo got the header plate for the turbo manifold made?!?! I've been trying to get laser cutters in the area to do it for me, and they are wanting to charge exorbitant prices for doing it! Has anyone got a template or something for such a process?

I'm not a 1G owner, but are the exhaust ports round?? (from memory I think they are)?

If so, you can acheive a more than satisfactory result buying a piece of 10mm thick flat bar in the appropriate width & length, and use the exhaust manifold gasket to trace the ports & stud/bolt holes. You can then cut each port hole with the correct sized hole saw in a drill press. I used one 2mm smaller than the size I wanted to cut, as they tend to be a little off centre, and so cut slightly bigger. Smile

Maybe I was just lucky, but this turned out excellent on the one I just made for my 4AGZE.

Cheers
Phil
