This is for adapting to a divided housing down the road. Its not true divided but should still work.

The manifold is stock 6-2-1 to a divided flange. There is a merge collector from 2 to 1 towards the turbo flange and the flange is a CNC tapered 3" divided. This is not what anyone would call a 99.9% super efficient build. It is intended to exercise whats possible using stock manifolds on a tight budget. The wastegate divert at the point where all gases met and with the path of least resistance should still be effective. Or thats the idea.

BMW project single turbo conversion first start. We still need a 90 degree -4 fitting for the feed line as to not pitch the feed line on top

If the mani is not divided, the twin scroll turbo or flange won't make a difference, actually probably a flow restriction then. Not trying to be mr negative as I like what you are doing, just trying to help.

The pics with turbo mounted look awesome by the way!

And LOL, caught picking your nose in the tuning pic!

Very nice, I had the oil feed line leak on start-up so i have to replace that and thermal shield it. Ill post more pic once she is assembled and running good.
