lol - none whatsoever!!!!

JK - send pics of what you mean. you can rotate the housings, but i'm not sure what you want to cut!!!

i know that using the sr20 turbo requires slight mod for fitment on the ca18det boost pipes, but i'm not sure of what "kinked flange" you are talking of!

sorry i had one of those nights last night and woke up early this morning. my explanation was terrible and im new at these terms so i do apologise if my terminology is incorrect. it does connect to the boost pipes here is a pic. how have others moded their turbo for the ca18 without buying made up boost pipes.
