Is there such a thing?? I've seen some ranging from $500 to well over $1000 for s/s ones.



I'm looking for one to fit a fc so that rules out all the cheap ones on ebay.



I'm most likley going with a hybrid turbo, and I've seen that hks makes a very simple "y" design manifold for the internal wastegate, but they want over 400 bucks for that!!!!



Any manifold that will bolt up to a fc, and accomidate a stock turbo, or the traditional to4 (externeal w/g is fine) will due. I kindof have a connection to get ahold of diesel turbos as well, so a project might be in order. But I just have a hard time paying more for my manifold than my turbo!!!



Any info or links will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

look for cast iron manifolds. they're cheaper than SS, and real durable. HKS makes some, dunno who else makes them.

I believe from memory they're around $250-300 and you should definately be able to find some for T04's



I know its sorta the antichrist around here, but rx-7store.net has some to look at

Cast Manidold (T04, Standard Wastegate) For 87-91 Mazda RX-7

Price $259.00



I'm sure other stores have them, just I knew that this store had them.

ok, very cool. That will do well for the hybrid. But what's the difference in "standard" wastegate. and "internal" wastegate??? I thought our stock was considered internal?? werd



Know any cheap ones that will work with an external wastegate??



thanks again
