Thinking on setting up my td04l to run external wastegate : is it prossible to make a hole in the front of the manifold (facing front grill) and get a flange welded on or will it crack??
its a black speedvision td04l 3mm mild steel manifold.

you could probably weld one on, not sure how strong it would be though, depends how well its welded, you can buy the externally gated td04 manifolds direct from speedvision now, its a straight swap for the internally gated ones, was thinking of doing it myself, drop SAM a PM

ye he does do an externally gated manifold now, i would give that a shot, would be stronger than doing it yourself i would say.

It can be drilled and a flange welded on to make it externally compatable.

Do it where the runners all meet in the collector above the turbo flange, not off one of the runners.
