Why even bother. If you're going to go through the work or removing/reinstalling your turbo, might as well get a T4

I see. Well I don't think hardly anyone buys from SSautochrome anymore because of all the bad **** people say about them.



Someone has to have bought one though, ask the other forums.

I don't think thats an SSautochrome unit. That company does not make their own stuff, they just replicate units out of Tiawan. Thats looks a little to new for SSautochrome to have.. I've never seen it before.



On a side not thats not a stock turbo flange. Hrmm..



Anyhow usually people just use the stock s5 manifold, as its divided vs the s4 which is a log style if they have a s4 turbo. No one does any upgrades for the series5, beyond a little grinding on the stock s5 manifold.



The cost a of nice manifold for the stock turbo defeats the purpose of not going full to4. Most places charge $1000 for a custom unit.



I was going to make a nice replacement a while ago for one of my TII's, just for the ease of removement.



I would start making a very nice unit, but I don't think I could sell them @ 700+ a pop.
