A very interesting "budget" topmount manifold...
Thought this was kinda funny... What are your thoughts? Does it look like it had any potential?

You're joking! Anyone using them? REQUEST FOR PICS! It's gotta be AC compatible, but is it PS compatible?

Re: (quicksilver1689)
I've made a 4-1 variety, and will have a 4-2-1 manifold done soon. The 4-1 style is easy & cheap to make (1st one cost $15 to make), and works with AC w/o issues - with a full 3" DP right off the turbine. I could use PS if I had it, but would have to run w/o a filter. The 4-2-1 are a bit harder to make fit with AC. It really depends on how & where you route pipes.
If anyone cares, my 4-1 made 160whp @6psi, and that was with a 50trim T3, stock cat/exhaust (tiny!), and a 8:1CR D16z6 (stock head). Based on how slow it spools, the 1.625" exhaust & cat are *really* holding it back.

these have been around for a while. A few People on homemadeturbo.com used these, they seem to work.
