TURBO MANIFOLD by Turbo-perfomance in Van Nuys cali.
This is to good to be true....I found these guys in the back of turbo magazine...they seem very professional and claim to do a lot of business...yet I really have never heard of anyone saying anything about their products.

mild steel construction is not that great but for the price it cant really be beaten.

I believe FFgeoff is selling his or maxrev's manifold for just around $400 which is of great construction, so why not get his?

They don't come polished but I think it looks better polished than coating it, but coating probably does something, but Im not very educated on that yet, hehe

Re: TURBO MANIFOLD by Turbo-perfomance in Van Nuys cali. (hatchy)
back to the original topic...
since I am off work today, I decided to to run around doing some errands and getting some parts and all...and I happened to be in the area of turbo performance...
so I called information and got their address..and went there...
they're very nice and cool guys...really smart too.. I actually was talking to those guys for a few hours and checked out their work area in the back where they made their manifold. Honestly, I am not too big on their manifold, but considering their prices, they're pretty good..it's basically an egual lentgh design all to a 4-1 collector and they weld the WG flange right before the collector..
they claim that they don't have any issues with fitment. they place the flange to the turbo a lil lower than regular cast iron flange, which can explaing their statements..
but over all they're very proffesional and I'd assume very nioce to deal with..

Re: TURBO MANIFOLD by Turbo-perfomance in Van Nuys cali. (Flamenco-NA)
I've been to their shop too. They build turbo manifolds for several different car makes/models. Their reason for the slightly smaller runners is that the inner diameter matches the exh port size (making for smoother flow, i guess).
i'm looking for a b series manifold right now, and their's is definately one i'm considering.
btw the material is mild steel.
