Default Which turbo manifold to use for D series

I want to run a gt30 turbo on stock internals and make 250 - 260 horse. Which turbo manifold is best for me, ramhorn style or top mount?

Go with the top mount. Better boost control and it looks cool. Everybody and their mom has a ramhorn.

GT30 s a bit big for a stock motor and only 250 wheel power, if you have NOT purchased thre turbo yet, look at the Gt28R instead. it still will support your power needs, and it's a little smaller s o you will get better spooling on your motor.

I run a Drag manifold on my build.

A log manifold would be efficient enough.

Run any manifold you want, any of them will support 250-325hp. Topmount is the bling, just costs more money. Personally, id rather dump money into a better fuel system and EMS then a blinger manifold you're just gonna have to pull off when you blow up the motor because you spent all your cash on it.
