Is anyone running the Treadstone turbo kit on their car?

How was the spool on the t3/t4 as a daily driver? Did you ever have any problems with that manifold? Can you give any views or impressions?

Some things are just worth trying.... maybe see what Google or Wikipedia has to say about it.

I have treadstone components on my setup not all treadstone kit, but I am satisfied with their manifold and FMIC.

Cool, thanks for the replies guys. I did a little bit of searching and found out a little more, seems to be good pieces at a great price. The only thing that I'm questioning is the manifold.



It appears that the wastegate port is only on one runner, or is it two? I can't really tell by the picture. I'd like one where all four cylinders have access to the wastegate, I guess I can replace this piece and use the rest of the kit?

runner 1 and 2 feed into it. It is possible to keep the ac and ps with the setup. ( I did it) but unless the exhaust is run right you will run into problems with burning up alternators. Trust me. I did it. But I am more than happy with the mani.

I spool at 2500.

I am running the Turbonetics Kit, and I like it. The only problem I had was the Mf2 secondary injectors that came with the setup. I would suggest getting a S300, VAFC or something. And that is not all you will need bigger injectors and so to fully utilize that setup. The manifold is a little weird, on the wastegate turbonetics says not to use a gasket but i have found that you have to use a gasket there. But it is a good starter setup. The A/C line will be right over the turbo (touching) and it will melt. You will have to have a custom A/C setup to keep it. You would also be able to bend that line a tad.

I ran the manifold in my old f22 turbo setup and it was just fine for me, i kept ps and ac!

I accept with information:The manifold is a little weird, on the wastegate turbonetics says not to use a gasket but i have found that you have to use a gasket there. But it is a good starter setup. The A/C line will be right over the turbo (touching) and it will melt.

Yea you'll have to wrap it in heat wrap and bend it just a tad. You'll be alright after that.

Also depending on the wastegate you use it might hit your hood... mine did

The lines are maleable. You can bend them out of the way slightly without any issues. I don't like that manifold but for the price of the kit you can't really complain. My kit is up for sale if the car doesn't sell as a whole this weekend, but you'd have to lose a/c to use it. The good news is that it would come with a tune, downpipe, dumptube, oil pan tapped for the return line, and corresponding fueling options other than the walbro fuel pump.

That's a very interesting topic. But this field is still new to me. It will be grateful if you give me some
more information about it. Thanks in advance.
