Radiator/Turbo Manifold Problem
I have searched the forums, but couldn't find what I'm looking for. I have a 95 integra gsr with the stock full length radiator. My ram horn manifold/turbo won't fit into the bay without hitting the radiator and I really don't want to go to a half-size radiator. Is there any other ram horn manifold that might fit? I also don't want to downgrade to a log style turbo mani.

Re: Radiator/Turbo Manifold Problem
That sucks. Are there any tubular manifolds (don't have to be ram horn) that might allow the turbo to fit?

Re: Radiator/Turbo Manifold Problem
I've always wondered if the Full-Race CRX manifold on an Integra would prevent you from having to go to a half-width radiator. The CRX manifold allows you to keep the same turbine orientation, but has a 90 degree angled wastegate off the manifold to possibly clear the radiator.
AC would still be eliminated, but at least you wouldn't have to compromise the radiator size.

Re: Radiator/Turbo Manifold Problem
I want to check that out. I have seen (a few) pictures of integras with turbos and a good inch or so of clearance from the radiator, but I could never find out how. And A/C has already been taken out, so no worries there.

^full race will do custom work they will just need to know what turbo, radiator, etc etc you are going with. I would try what the guy above said and ask em.

Okay, well, I really don't want to spend more than 7-8 hundred on the manifold, but that's a thought I guess. I'll look into it for sure, though. Thanks guys.

Re: Radiator/Turbo Manifold Problem
hard part is going to be mounting fans. i have an inline pro manifold and koyo full size thick as **** denso radiator. there is no way a twin fan setup will ever fit but a single 10" or possibly the drivers side fan might fit on the passenger side if i make custom brackets.
just was test fitting this the other day
i'm having a blank out on the quick4 since phil makes two different versions. one is the quick4 ac which has the most clearance and the other is the standard quick4
i know there are a few pics floating around the forum. in fact there is a full size radiator discussion thread in the road race forum if you search turbo full radiator
