Just some shots I got of a guy who had one at the Tuner Bash this past weekend in Panama City, FL.

Nice wastegate dump tube

What was that guy thinking?

I think he's looking at the radiator hose.

Naw, the dump is at a pretty extreme angle as compared to the outlet of the WG. Speaking of the radiator, is that a custom unit? I have never seen a setup like that.

no, hes right the dump tube is a little weird. lookit it. but he has no other choice if its flipped the tube will jam against the radiator.


but hell thats a sexy engine bay!

 

no way john welded that t3 flange and wastegate neck.... that manifold looks highly suspicious.

definately looks like it has been welded on after the fact in those spots.

 

Well I looked close and the flange DID say HyTech on it...not sure about the dump tube though. It was running kind of shitty...he was using AEM EMS, but it sure did look good [for the most part] inside and out.

 

I love that manifold...

i think he means that that mani was modified, cuz yea, the placement/angle is crap for the wastegate dump, and they welds look sloppy

Yeah, the welds on the collector were magnificent...but around the flange and wastegate area it did look kind of crappy.

 

not saynig this is the same person, but didnt someone have a manifold stolen last year with a 40mm WG flange?

 

that's what i was thinking too.

 

I know the guy who built that car and the guy who owns it.

While they have done some things that are kind of suspect from a technical standpoint I'd wager that manifold was bought new and modified.

Geoff,

Yea that was my brother's car but it had a Tial 46mm gate on it....Thanks for looking out though....

 

It looks like someone simply reversed the Tial wastegate and had someone make a new dump tube for them...

Here's what it looks like out of the car with the correct dump tube angle.

bling that setup seems to be using a fmic. any pics of how the piping is routed?

 

looks HOT
how much are one of those things?

They HyTech manifold is $1500. LoveFab makes a similar one for $800.

I don't have any pics, but yes it uses a FMIC. The charge is routed down and over to the driver side of the car (behind the radiator), around the frame rail, into the inlet of the FMIC, out the outlet and around the passenger frame rail, up and into the TB.

 

its a nice manifold. but dam that has to be a pain in the *** to take it off and put it back on. you would be there for hours.

 

You know what's funny that I just noticed?

Look at the pictures closely. His AC condenser and compressor are there, but the lines are not! What's the point of that manifold if you don't have your AC hooked up?!
