Default Manifold Teaser thread . . .



New manifolds are done on paper (one for real) we are double checking the clearance in the car next week with a proper turbo mounted up along with test fitting placement for the External WG for those wanting them.

Chances are we will offer one or two flanges to use for the external setup or we can offer it w/o the flange weld'd on the end so you can DIY whatever odd flange you want.

Either way These are Top mount, Sub $500 shipped to your Door manifolds. rumor mill says that we might be able to include a SS DP for the same price as the std DP's we have been building but that would require a fair amount of people using the same turbine outlet flange but we will know for sure the more time progresses.

Either way, Throwing this out there for those who were interested as this first one will be for sale next week after we test fit in the car to make sure it clears all of the basic stuff.

We will also be offering oil feed and return lines for said setup.

I know that the final result has changed a lot from our original design but we weighted a lot of the points and for now this gets them out there and we might try to revisit our original idea later down the line.

lol? are you seriouse? im seriously not trying to be a dick, but of your gona be using a 15g.. might as well stick with a 90+ also a 15g isnt T3. but they do make adapter to run that baby turbo on a t3 flange. also honestly.... a 16t isnt a noticable upgrade from a 15g. the cold side is only a TINY bit bigger.
