Aspec and his crew came up with a new manifold for their GT35/40. Sean posted on evil.



I wanted to see it here.

Nice setup. Where is this being done. Is it tig or mig welding, and how much does a setup like that cost?

Looks like you can fit the air pump on the engine now.

I don't think that you can fit the airpump, I haven't tried yet though they are equal length and come in either stainless or mild/coated. There weren't any fitment issues with the old kit this one will just flow better, and if all goes well should fit the newGT40R's as well.
