That's pretty bad ***. If I decide to upgrade my turbo on my next TII project, I'm all about getting one of those.

I will buy one. I'm at school right now though and plan on starting during the summer. Maybe I'll get some work started during winter break.

Well, we finished the car up today. It seems to have pretty good power with the new turbo. And it sounds alot different.





There is no boost creep at all. The wastegate is holding 5psi no problem.





Dyno time shortly.

Sounds good. Is this with the wastegate going forward still? I might buy one around december so i can get started during winter break. A nice video would be excellent. Maybe persuade me a little more into purchasing one of your fine manifolds. I'd like to hear exactly how it's different.

No, the wastegate will face the rear from now on. Unless you want it to face forward.





It really isn't much different then the other manifolds.... The main difference is that this one will not crack.

you would be all up for building one for the 12a right??? if so you will get my money(when i have it) since of corse there are no after market 12a turbo mans.

just custom... and you said you could cut the flange to fit any turbo right???

and just an idea for the 6 port question, what about sortining the length of the manafold so the turbo sits under the manafold istead of next to it??? do you understand???

uhh... I didn't ever say that I could put any turbo flange on it. I would prefer just to stay with the t4 flange.





And I have no idea what you are talking about with the 12a's... My only rotary stuff is with the tII in the pics, and Abels car.
