Vibrant Performance T304SS Turbo Inlet Flange for Garrett GT2052 Turbochargers
Vibrant Performance T304SS Turbo Inlet Flange bolts directly to Garrett GT2052 compressor housings in custom diesel truck builds, sport compact swaps, and performance import applications including 5.9L Cummins and TDI engines. This flange creates a leak-free seal for maximum airflow into the turbo while resisting corrosion in high-heat environments. Fabricators rely on it for seamless integration with 2.5-inch OD inlet piping in demanding turbo systems.
Key Features
- T304 Stainless Steel Construction: Handles temperatures up to 1600°F and blocks corrosion for reliable performance across repeated heat cycles in turbo setups.
- Precision CNC Machined: Aligns perfectly with Garrett GT2052 compressor inlet bolt pattern to eliminate leaks and ensure airtight connections in custom fabrications.
- Mirror Polished Finish: Delivers a professional look that resists buildup and allows easy post-install inspection of welds and seals.
- 4-Bolt Pattern Design: Works with standard M8 x 1.25 bolts and inlet tubing for flexible setups on GT2052, GT2052V, GTX2052, and GT20 series turbos.
- Lightweight Build: At just 3.2 ounces maintains strength without adding excess weight to rotating turbo assemblies.
Product Notes
- Designed for welding to custom inlet pipes in turbo fabrication projects.
- Check flange for debris prior to installation to guarantee a tight seal.
- Ships in protective foam insert inside 4 x 4 x 1 inch box to avoid damage.
Installation Notes
- Professional installation recommended.
- TIG weld flange to 2.5-inch OD inlet pipe for strongest bond.
- Use M8 x 1.25 bolts and torque to 18-22 ft-lbs with gasket on GT2052 housing.

Shop Fabrication Parts & Materials at Black Ops Auto Works for stainless steel tubing, titanium tubing, aluminum charge piping, mandrel bends, V-band clamps, flanges, merge collectors, AN fittings, PTFE hose kits, braided fuel and oil lines, heat shields, welding supplies, brackets, bungs, and hardware for building custom exhaust systems, turbo plumbing, intercooler piping, fuel systems, and engine bay routing. Start with tubing (304 or 321 stainless, titanium, or aluminum) in the right diameter and wall thickness, then add mandrel bends, flanges, V-bands, and clamps to complete the joint work. AN plumbing follows the same pattern: match dash size to horsepower target, pair the right hose (PTFE or CPE) with matching hose ends, and use adapters, bulkheads, and distribution blocks to route fuel, oil, and coolant cleanly. Shop by material (stainless, titanium, aluminum), fitting type (AN, ORB, NPT), diameter, or brand (Vibrant, Ticon, Stainless Bros, Radium, Fragola, DEI, ATP). ...

Flanges
Exhaust flanges are the bolted connection points where exhaust manifolds mate to downpipes, where sections of exhaust pipe join at catalytic converters and muffler inlets, and where aftermarket headers connect to factory or custom collector sections, making flange quality and correct material specification critical for maintaining leak-free exhaust connections under the extreme temperature cycling that performance exhaust systems experience. Flange warping and gasket failures at exhaust connection points are among the most common exhaust leak sources on both stock and modified vehicles, as the thermal expansion differences between the flange material and the connected pipe cause progressive face distortion over time that breaks the gasket seal. Performance exhaust builders use thick-cut mild steel, stainless steel, or titanium flanges in precise O.D. profiles matched to their pipe diameter to ensure the clamping surface remains flat through hundreds of heat cycles. This collection c...
