exhaust flange

[Jeffrosie]

Hi all. My name's Jeff.
I'm new on here. Recently bought a 97 micra SLX.
I'm intent on turbocharging it. Been reading the forum in depth and have come to the conclusion that I need a Micra CG13DE exhaust flange and to get it married to a Starlet/Glanza flange.
So, where can i get a Exhaust flange? Looked everywhere, but no luck. Can somebody pint me in the direction of one

 

[Jeffrosie]

point me not pint me
haahaa

which flange? cg13 could more than likely be picked up from a scrap yard or ebay, and would depend on which turbo your wanting to fit to it but ebay might be a good pplace to look for the starletmanifold

 

[Jeffrosie]

Can the std manifold flanges be used? Did'nt know that.
And yes, about the starlet/glanza manifold, I know its available on ebay

 

[Belly93]

i assumed that is what you meant when you said marry the cg13 flange with the glanza manifold?

 

[Jeffrosie]

Perfect Thanks

Will just do that then, use std manifold flange

Welding the stock cast iron flanges is possible jeff, but not straight forward, a set of mild steel flanges would be preferable (a full width flange can give expansion problems)

just the man for the question, top man frank

cheers Frank, but where can i get mild steel flanges from?

Most CG stuff is custom i,m afraid mate, the market is too small for anyone to make batches (unlike toyota mani,s )
I would take some gaskets to a local metal fabricators personally, and ask them to cut some from 6mm steel plate

Thanks
Guess thats waht I'll have to do.
