Anyone had any experience with these, sure they look kinda crap and bulky but gives the ability to get the rest of the downpipe made up on the cheap.

Lots of people use them, but if you're getting a dump made anyway, you can buy the flange from ebay - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Turbo-Dump-D ... SwYGFUrhcd

Yea one of those was my other option. Wasn't sure whether its better going for a known bellmouth rather than hoping the local exhaust shope, albeit a good one, can make up a tidy one from scratch

I have a full AVO dump (albeit on a VF46)
The cast piece looks shitty, but does seem to flow pretty well. But as Matt pointed out, getting a completely custom may be a better option if you're looking at all-out flow.
Give CES racing a call, they've made a few custom dumps for people on the forum.

Change of plans, going to make up a custom turbo with a TD06SL2 turbine housing so will be needing a STI spec bellmouth instead which I know Kinugawa do, but charge a fair bit for. And of course headers/uppipe to match

Also after some sort of compressor outlet flange to go from the two bolt style outlet to a 2inch sized pipe for a silicone joiner if anyones seen anything like that out in the wild, been looking through the likes of ebay and come up empty handed.

AVO make one - comes with the converter and a silicone pipe to go into the TMIC.

Awesome, i'll check them out.
Yea seen some pics of yours on facebook a few days back. You doing a 98 tune aswell as e85? Would be keen to see what kind of response it gets from 98. Still quite a while away from picking one up for mine. Can't decide whether to get a better shortblock done ahead of time so that I can get the most out of it.
