I am going to be making a 14b manifold, this would be the flange I need to bolt the turbo to the manifold, correct?

Because I ordered a 14b flange that looked like this, http://catalog.exileracing.com/images/ert_t3_rectangle.jpg because it said it was a t-25 flange (Which is the same as a 14b flange, right?) and I figured they just had a generic picture, because all their auctions had the t3 flange shown.

Anyway, the seller is insisting that I did indeed get a 14b/t-25 flange, but it wasn't even close to bolting up to my 14b, so I know that is not true, but anyway, can you guys shed some light on the situation so I don't sound like an idiot??

Cliff notes: What does a 14b flange look like? Is it the same as a T25 Flange? Did they ever look anything like a t3 flange, or did they always have the round hole?


Thanks,
Brian


edit: Nevermind, I figured it out, they mean All nissan t25 turbos, like off of an sr20det. So I guess when they say something will work with all t25 turbos, it will work with all t25 turbos except mitsubishi t25 turbos.

What exactly does that mean, what flange do I need to get this thing to hook up to the manifold I am making?

Would this work??

The real question is...why are you making a 14b manifold, why not bigger...i didnt think a tubular manifold on a 14b made much difference..?
But maybe im wrong.

He is making this for his turbo Civic project.

That flange you linked to at RRE looks like what you need, so will that last eBay auction you linked to..
