my issues/question! - t3 top mount?
Been doing alot of research on parts and hitting up alot of friends for labor so i can turbo my lancer
Question is: little more tech, or if u have on just laying around to check..
alot of people modify a evo turbo manifold for the 16g turbos.. what about a b series turbo manifold for a t3/t4?
they have the same bolt PATTERN as a lancer.. but are they the right spacing apart? (i assumed no..) but.. are the runners still close enough to just weld on our flange for the 4g94, without having to mess with the difference in runners?
(figured someone would just need to overlay a gasket from a 4g94 to see the spacing differences, but i dont have an extra B series header laying around..
IF yall think im stupid in looking into a topmount(or ram horn) from a B series motor, please let me know.

99 Honda Civic Si
Lancer on top

I think a non Si Civic for these 2 pics. One is the Lancer on top, other is the civic.

So you can see the runners line up best in the first pic. So a manifold for a 99 civic si would require very little, if any drilling of the runners. The lancer bolt holes stick out farther on the ends so you'd have to drill out the civic flange to get nuts on there.

oh ya it did line up really good... i think im gunna order a b18 topmount turbo manifold.. (same thing) gunna have a tial v44 wastegate on it. and i think im gunna get a turbo xs resurculating bov.. (still debating that part cuz i really like the sard and the tial also.. just dont want to buy any extra parts to make them resurculating bovs)
so.. holes need to be just drilled out larger on the civic flange, and the outside bolts just look like they wont work at all since that flange doesn't have any excess on it..
not sure how to fix that.. or if i even would need to fix it..
hrmm any ideas?

ya. i think ill still do it that.. just didnt want to mess up the pretty manifold..
o well. (where can i get a lazer cut flange from that doesnt cost 70 bucks like rrm charges..) its just a tiny piece of metal.. shouldnt cost that much for real. and a good metal gasket also..
