Lets talk aftermarket turbo manifolds.

Whizbang · 09-12-2008, 05:54 AM

i would be interested in making an FD cast item work if i can not find an FC one.

Just adding the flange seems like a great way to add more chance for exhaust leakage.

RETed · 09-12-2008, 10:32 AM

There are lots of used ones that pop up.
Check eBay.
They also come up a lot on YJA.

Also keep an eye out on GReddy units.

ill probably wait til something appears on ebay. The Yahoo Japan site is a pita to translate constantly.

White88FC · 09-12-2008, 11:11 AM

theirs a used greddy cast manifold on there right now

Whizbang · 09-12-2008, 12:09 PM

yea i have been looking at those, but right now money is a bit tight so it will depend on how a paycheck or two goes.

picture is wrong but it's the correct part number

TehMonkay · 09-12-2008, 03:28 PM

Yeah, chinese crap knockoffs.

Greddy declares bankruptcy why?

I have a 2g HKS manifold up on my shelf. I even think its been jet hot coated. I'll take 200 for it.

How much better are their designs over the Stocker? will it fit my Stage 2? I'll need a new DP too, right?

TehMonkay · 09-12-2008, 07:10 PM

No it's a T4 flange.

For $200 i'd take it but that'll be two weeks from now though lol

MaczPayne · 09-12-2008, 07:43 PM

200 is a smoking deal for that!

djmtsu · 09-12-2008, 08:54 PM

See, here is my only hitch.

I'm not a cheap bastard, but I am hesitant to go full T04 for these reasons:
-I don't want to get all new coolant and oil feed/drain lines
-I don't want to get a custom DP
-I don't want to have to make another TID
-I don't want to make gonzo HP
-I don't want to go to a full standalone EMS

I am content with making modest HP, the limit of what the chassis with minor suspension mods can handle. If I was building a purpose built track car, maybe. I still want to drive it anywhere I want and not have to worry about things.

Edit: So I might be selling an FD T04 manifold.

Whizbang · 09-15-2008, 08:37 PM

i think that i am going to plan and budget for a used HKS manifold, and then run a good T4 turbo, etc.

plus i have high altitude to consider.

Whizbang · 09-15-2008, 09:02 PM

i am actually more concerned about finding the right turbocharger at a price that isnt going to kill my budget but without getting a bogus unit.
