Looks like an SS AutoChrome manifold to me... bad news...
So, the stuff doesn't come on the car? Looks like it's on there to me?

Re: putting together my first boost setup (EJ1 wilcox)
^^^ yeah thats what it is......what would u suggest? whats the best bang for my buck? good quality.....not looking to cheap out on this.
no ecu, no piping.........he took those things off, so he is taking the rest off for our trade, and i'm going to get parts and put it all together (with buddies help)

The greddy manifold isn't flanged for a T3 turbo, it will not fit... the flange is for a Nissan Style T25, it's a little smaller than a T3 flange...
