T3 Turbo Inlet Flange W/ Tapped Holes (1/2In Thic

The VIBRANT PERFORMANCE T3 Turbo Inlet Flange with Tapped Holes is a precision-engineered compressor housing connection component designed for turbocharged engine systems. This 0.5-inch thick steel flange provides a direct bolt-on interface between the turbo inlet manifold and the turbocharger compressor, with factory-tapped mounting holes for streamlined installation. Built from high-quality steel with natural finish, this T3 flange meets OEM specifications for secure, leak-free boost delivery across a wide range of turbocharged applications.

The 0.5-inch thickness provides optimal rigidity to prevent gasket creep and boost leaks under sustained high boost pressure. The tapped hole design eliminates the need for separate studs or external fasteners, reducing assembly complexity and potential leak points. At 0.82 lbs, the flange weighs minimally while maintaining structural integrity—a critical balance in forced induction systems where intake tract durability directly affects turbo spool response and pressure stability. The natural steel finish is compatible with standard anti-seize compounds and gasket materials used in turbo installations.

This component is essential for builders and tuners upgrading to turbocharger systems or replacing OEM intake flanges on T3-standardized turbo housings. Street and track applications benefit from the flange's consistent bore and gasket surface finish, which supports both atmospheric and boosted engine builds. VIBRANT PERFORMANCE is recognized in the automotive performance aftermarket for precision casting and machining tolerances, making this flange suitable for high-horsepower and competitive environments where intake integrity is non-negotiable.
