Look at the second manifold in the picture. That flange isnt tapered like the k04 its blocked like a t3 wouldd be, plus runner #3 looks different. It may not be offered yet but my eyes dont deceive me

That's a T25 flange for the 6258, 6758, and 7163 EFR turbos my good man.

From what i've been told, FR uses a much different shielding gas mix than most people do (most traditionally use 100% argon, or slight mix with helium. I think FR uses significantly more helium or some other mix). The modified mix gives their welds much better penetration and heat control, but is quite a bit more dangerous. Because of that, i think they're actually required to use cnc tig welders, rather than welding by hand.

But i'm sure the finish welds, like collector to turbo flange, and runners to head flange are done by a human. At least most likely.

The amount of knowledge that comes from you amazes me. It also turns me on.....

Yes this will be available but not sure about when/details.

Edit: T25 for EFR kits will be the only alternate flange as of now.

Correction, looks like the T25 flange for the EFR kit will be the only alternate flange option for now.
