Default Top mount mani?

Whats up guys,

Working on a true street crx. I know it maybe an obvious question, but i thought id ask anyway. Im building this car on somewhat of a budget so before I go out and get a custom manifold built I want to see what there is out there.

The turbo is PTE 6765 and im looking for 700-750 hp. I don't mind notching a few things but Im not looking into rebuilding my entire rad support. If there is a top mount t4 mani/ twin scroll out there I would appreciate it if someone posted a link or info.

Thanks guys.

What is your power level? Im building for the 67 mm class but with future plans for outlaw. I cant find what this manifold is rated to. But it seems it only goes to 650ish.

budget and 700-750hp do NOT work in the same sentence

that turbo is 900hp capable, its gonna take more then 4500rpms to make it spool

This manifold is for a T3 exhaust housing only. At this time, I do not believe there is anyone making a T4 top mount manifold for our cars. I'm sure a custom one can be built, but you would probably have to kiss your radiator support good bye.

I think the best option out there now is the Full-Race divided housing bottom mount.

When I say budget I dont mean im rubbing pennies together. Im just looking to get the necessary components and not get carried away with too much "bling"


Thank for the input Redline but I cant seem to find that manifold on their site. I contacted my local fabricator, im looking at bout $1900 for a custom T4 divided top-mount with minimal notching required.

It's not listed on their website anymore, as they had previously stopped making it. But I believe they have either continued making it, or can make it as a special order item.

If you go to the link, there is a drop down option for T4.

Yea I saw that ^. The only thing I dont like about that manifold is that it positions the turbo at an angle. Which would force me to make the down pipe smaller so it doesn't hit the other runners or even the engine. Maybe he can make one that leaves the turbo parallel to the motor.

Yea Ive done a full race setup before but Ive never used their bottom mount twin scroll and it seems to be discontinued. It looks like im gonna order their top mount twin scroll because its still cheaper than the custom quote I got. Im just gonna have to cut more than I wanted to and figure out a new ic and radiator setup.

A "true street CRX" with 700-750hp on a budget just seems absurd.

Thanks for your input^ Ill take into account how absurd I am. I wasn't aware everyone is required to buy the most expensive items for the car to be in ts trim. Please do enlighten me on how much i should spend.

and when i say budget, I mean somewhere along these lines...

Well I guess the terms "budget" and "true street CRX" are subjective. Most people wouldn't think a car producing that kind of power is a "true street" car and it would be out of most budgets or so I'd imagine.
