Pulled out another manifold to prep today.
This one came from a healthy Crafter 2.5TDI , looks almost identical to the AXG / AHY swan necked type. I'll add a pic of both together. If you're looking to buy one - they can be expensive - , cheap units tend to gain cracks through the cast so be aware! The turbo flange is designed to take a Garrett T25 housing, one of the commonest flange types.
The obvious difference is the EGT sensor fixings precast in the design exactly where it needs to be just before the turbo inlet. Got an old gasket to template the porting work to be done. The die grinder makes short work of such tasks. First it needs cleaning up.....
