my new turbo manifold
here is my 16v tubular manifold made by a friend of mine, it was completely done and we had to basically start over b/c the first construction it was so big i don't think i would've been able to cut the rain tray out and the hood so we re did it, the other runners aren't done yet i spent like 4-5 hours figuring them out last nigth and tonight, anyway here are some pics
this has 2 designs for the outer runners, the one on the left makes the manifold almost a true equal lenght but the one on the right is easier and gives more space, so i need to decide what is more important
mounted in the car

is there anyway to modify a lil bit the turbo so the turbine doesnt sit as close to the valve cover?
just a tought...... or is it the amount of space only available.
never seen inside that bay, so i cant tell

the manifold is gonna be pushed back about .5" but it's still gonna be a little close to the valve cover for my taste but to move it much farther back i would have to cut the rain tray out and i really don't wanna do that

That looks pretty good.
Lovefab should start making these...I know Cody would sell these. I know a few guys that would love to have a manifold like mine for the VDubb.

Re: (B16A1-EF9)
manifold for vws are so hard to make, this is the second rendition of this manifold, there is so much more crap to work around on a vw than a honda and vw people in general are cheap as hell and most wouldn't pay for something like this
