hey guys looking at my stock s14sr20det mani is it possible to weld on an external flange and run a 38mm gate even though it has the divided headers? thanks

I've been using mine now for what seems like ever, and would never EVER go bak to internal gate, this side of a low boost low HP application. Anyone pushing a 28RS/2871r/30r (T2 flanged) turbo with big boost and power should consider this mod as an assurance and advantageous way to go.
Sure, there are guys who have 'no issues' as they say, but it doesn't last long or requires severe boost control duties. This method above works everytime, and holds boost dead consistantly (not to mention helped spool it a little quicker as the backpressure wasn't pushing the gate open.
If anyone wants this done, PM me ;)
(I know I Just PM'd you back as well, but wanted to let others know)
