O2 housings...

Most of the 02 housings I've come across for RWD 4g stuff are custom pieces welded together from flanges and mandrel bends. It looks like RRE sells the flanges to weld up your own. Is there anyone that has produced an 02 housing for a td04/05 turbo which works for a RWD application? What I mean by this is when the turbo is 'flipped' the stock 02 housing points out into the passenger side wheel well and not directly down like it would ideally need to be. Maybe someone over on the starion / conquest forums have done so?

This is what I am talking about. Any hope of something like this being massed produced?

mass production of something like this would be difficult due to the slight variations in all of the rwd setups (most use a custom ex manifold) and all so the shells that the setups are being put into are not the same therefore you cannot gurantee clearence etc

So I ordered my flange. I'm wondering what schedule of pipe to go with. Will the normal sch 40 stuff that I get from Jegs be fine? I guess I'll fine out.
