New Turbo Manifold Help
I need a new turbo manifold and I have a 1.6L with a TB28 turbo. I can’t find one that comes with a flange for my turbo (the one in the link is for a T25/T28). Does it matter what type of flange comes with it as long as it bolts onto my engine or would I have to order a flange for my specific turbo or would this product just not work for my model at all?
Thanks! (Link for possible new manifold below)

Cast Irion?
The Chinese manifold is probably fine. If it doesn't fit your turbo then you're going to have to buy a turbo. If it doesn't put your downpipe in the right place then you're going to have to buy another downpipe.
Never design your build around some random junkyard Turbo. They're so cheap. Get the right one for the application. Nobody usually turbos the 1.6 because of the limitations of the engine, differential, brakes, and other things.
