What does this thick flange do for turbo folks? I'm not that familiar with turbo/boost builds, so I'm wondering what this does for folks.

Seems if it were thicker yet you could drill/tap and put injectors there.

it would be a lot easier to drill/tap because it wouldn't be at a funky angle like when you machine an intake...or is that angle critical to point the injectors directly toward the intake ports? I.e. they would be orthogonal in my scenario, not at the appropriate angle?

The flange is so you can weld pipe to it to build your own intake/exhaust setup. It's not like a spacer or anything, though I guess it could be.

In my opinion, it's a complete hoax piece the dude slapped 'TURBO' in the title and is looking to sell to suckers who want to turbo their slant but don't know much about slants or turbos. That piece is a 1 piece intake/exhaust flange, if I understand correctly, which leads to two questions:

WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO BUILD A INTAKE AND EXHAUST ON THE SAME FLANGE?!

And especially on a turbo motor where a hot IAT is undesirable?

What does this part have to do at all with exhaust driven forced induction?

"Headers by Ed" sells a single flange like this one. The turbo charged Finnish Dart that was floating around the net a couple years ago used a single flange like this one.

The only problem that I see is expansion of the flange went it gets hot.

Yeah, this persons product has nothing to do with a turbo application, he is just sticking on the word "turbo" in the description to reel you in.

You need something more like this below:
