Thanks Dave. I figured the close-ups would clear any confusion or doubts. We will be more than likely be making complete kits, I do have access to a local fd for test fitment so it shouldn't be a problem. I am also doing work on a big turbo mr2 in the shop so we might be developing manifolds for them too. I believe we are going to start the n/a headers here shortly also. As you can see we are extremely busy.

Kooks welded a bracket for Jim's manifold to bolt up somewhere on the engine for support, dont know why no one else just doesnt weld a bracket to support the weight of the turbo?

What about the FC, do you have access to one for test fits?

I doubt you have access to a 13b-RE FB, so would it be a problem to release the measurements of the manifold? That way I could get some idea where this would put my turbo in the engine bay...
Did you guys use CAD to draw this or just basically freehand it to get a reference?

The OBX uses 3 part runners as well. Its the ssautochrome one that has a single part runner. Also the OBX manifold has been out at least 4 years so they were made way before these manifolds. This pic is of the OBX. The runners are the exact same diameter. They are both the same size as the port. Just like the racing beat flange...it uses slightly over 2 inch ports. Your flanges do look thicker
