has anyone made good power with this turbo manifold like under 430whp at full boost. i try to search but no luck. i like these manifold alot for the price and since i see some people that have rev hard manifold that made good power, i figure the blox can too

i forgot to add, on a stock gsr/lsvtec or a stock bore piston/rod combo gsr/lsvtec with a 57 trim 60/63 a.r turbo.

bump..... no one has a blox manifold

No I have looked into this, on a budget build you can grab one of these after awhile they can crack because of the cast iron. I have heard about this on a couple people's setups. If you wanted a real log manifold just go for the Inlinepro's. Top of the line for log manifolds.

Id say run it if you already have it.

well acutally i havent heard of anyone crackin there drag cast manifold...and it not a log either i think they flow pretty good

i dont have it yet. A friend of mine has a blox manifold for 2 years on his stock untune b20 that made 368hp around 15-17psi and his never crack. Hell i had my tubler less than a year and it crack in two places. to be honest i never heard any castiron crackin. the guy that tigweld my manifold recommend castiron, beside retirer after 30 years from the airforce from welding aircraft

Blox is not a log manifold? Please explain.

And as for the cast iron not cracking this is just what I have heard, I've seen some pics of the cracks starting near the wastegate flange and heading down between the 2nd and 3rd runner.

Hobkins

I'd just go with the Inlinepro's they handle rediculous ammounts of psi and I haven't heard any negative things on them.

plenty of people making great power with cast style manifolds.


IMO the inline pro vs the blox, to be honest i dont think is a HUGE difference, both have a slight amount of direct runner flow. the blox has a great wastegate placement.

the bad thing is, you cannot put as big of a turbo on a blox manifold than you can on an inline pro because of its flange configuration and placement.

Hobkins

Some other thoughts on the Blox is you run into hood clearance issues with some wg's. Just another thing I remember reading from fellow h-t members.

A customer of mine had one on a stock GSR made 370HP on it..

^^ I saw your thread a couple days ago. I didnt want to hijack your thread so i made this. Remember im not going for all out power, im just looking to make 330-350 on pump and on race gas around 400+ or whatever it make on high boost. As for upgrading turbo, the turbo that i have now is a keeper, SC34 57 trim 60/63

i would think it could make that power

Some how I cracked my cast manifold. Here is the only pic i have right now, look in the corner and you can see I tried to re-weld it

Hobkins

Of course you could you get 350 - 400 on them... That's the goals I'm going for also. But my mind has been set to just spend an extra 200 for the InlinePro's. I'm sure the Inline's will last up to high hp with c16 and high boost. It's just one more thing that I don't have to worry about.

run a wastegate elbow. same issue with the inline pro once you add on a boost controller and have to use the upper port on the wastegate
