Someone that has experience with a product that i could listen to. Who made your homemade one and do you have a picture of it and dyno or something to see how it preforms and one more thing your prefprms cuz you know how to drive too </TD></TR></TABLE>

Alot of good stuff here.. I guess I kinda mis-understood what you were saying..

This is the most important thing unless your just comparing dyno plots.. I do agree that one manifold can make more power than another and the fact that a good driver with a shitty manifold would win over a shitty driver with a good manifold.. But you would still want to find out what manifold is better and start with that..

The manifold that I am using is a basic homemade setup where im using a crx hf manifold with an adapter plate.. I do want to try to build my own and see how that works out.. But basically you get what you pay for if you buy it.. The lovefab manifold are some of the best I have see but their not cheap.. The ss autochrome manifold arent built that strong but do perform well for the price..

yea 304L stainless.

 

that is one killer setup is your mai like fullrace or something totally different. My plan right now is that i need to get a new transmission aka i need a 5spd and then i was planning on hondata or uber data, i haven't done my research on really either of them well enough i know the programs just have to learn on them. Ill put the turbo on stock motor for now then havea spare block and build it with rods and pistons for a combo to mke like 325 hp, i think that would be enough but once i go to the darkside who knows. hahaha but who should i look to, to get a manifold i have seen maxrev and spoolin, but not any others. i don't want drag or fmax, i should get a hold of some people locally to see if they would make something for me

 

also btw I have not seen a decent intake manifold for us f22b1 gusy, you probably would have to do something custom.

I heard the h23 dual runner may fit and I have one here in the garage... as of yet I am not sure it will fit and have not had time to compare gaskets at the parts store.

 

good lord man!!!! where id that come from not quite a medusa but custom for sure, but that is what im looking for, or something close to it, i can't tell but u don't have ac working??yes mine will still be a street car for traveling with the gf. who made that masterpiece?

 

so stainless is differnt that the steel that you use? but you don't make an equal length or something close to that. i saw when u posted for your shop you had made one for your car but weren't going to make ne more. Your companies is one that i was def looking at, being one of the only having a manifold within a reasonalbe amout of time

no nothing like the ramhorn fullrace design... it was a custom design close to forcethis's manifold but a bit shorter runner and collector.

the 5 speed is the way to go... I love it and it has been very durable thus far. I need more clutch though, the current one is going away.

325 is a good hp goal... it is a very realistic number imo and I am going to try also for close to there next time I get a chance to dyno, with better fuel management/ more boost.

 

so how much would that kind pf deal run me, oh and is there a kit that i can buy or guidelines as for what i need to but to do the tranny swap? that is something i need to do pronto! i hate ths slush box!!! and tell me this why do know one build stuff for the F22 its a good freakin motor look at bisi and now full race i beleive is building a mani for an F22 crx they need to make them for street cars come on now!

 

I paid a bit more than you can get something like it for now but... it was an ok price for me at the time.

the manifold, charge piping, dp, and braided stainless oil lines ran be about a 1000 and change... everything is tig welded and either 304 or 321 stainless steel.

I would love to see full race build a street manifold for f22's... maybe someday.

lately more manufacturers and whatnot are seeing the demand for the f22 products so it is slowly starting to catch on. I dont understand why it had such little demand before... and why people never thought they would be a good platform for mods... maybe its cause we are sohc's.

 

how did u go about finding a place that could make one for you , or someone that you can trust?thats my prob for now when it comes to local dealings?

 

I figured it would be custom fab work needed... so I looked around as much as possible in my area or feasable driving distance... then checked out the person or shops work. I found a pretty good guy who had some great welding skills... so I went to him (he is not making these, he does very few cars besides his own).

he was such a perfectionist it took forever though... In fact I dont think he enjoys making things for others at all... hence the price.

Yea sorry, i duno whats up with the pics, heres some more
The manifold was a contract deal, you wont find it on my site. But we can definalty offer you one.

 

how much something like that run me , qualtiy function form look amazing . looks good and pricey but it seems to be second to none. how long would take to produce as well

 

just curious if your manifold clears the front motor mount or is it removed totally ( it is in all the pics is why I am curious)?

looks good though.

what kind of turbo is being hung off of that manifold?

 

the motor mount on that setup is going to be a custom setup.
Although I think if needed be the stock could be haggled to work.

the turbo is just a t3/to4b

 

clean

 

those setups are sick!

 

how about intake manifolds any idea where i could get a custom intake mani as well or should i just stick with the stocker
