Default Where can I find these!! *custom turbo manifold*

I am searching for the "T" and "elbow" from that picture. I want to make a custom turbo manifold. They are "Steam pipes" I think, but can't find them anywhere!!!


Thanks!!

the manifold in the first pic looks like total ****. The flanges, everything. Ive seen these on e-bay and they go for ~125-150, in pieces. As far as personal experience no i dont know anyone with one. For a low budget kit im sure that it would be ok. I would rather save the money and get a maxrev, revhard...etc

I dont see how this is any different (worst) than any other log type manifolds.

I know of two local guys that made the same exact manifold, which i also just finished making. One of the guys has a sr20det making 460 hp at 20lbs of boost and the other has a fully built b18b motor that put down 428fwhp@ 7,800rpm 20psi
313ft/lbs @6,000rpm 20psi. Ill let you know how mine works out.

Funny how lot's of those people sayed "it's ****" even though about 90 percent of them have never seen it in person, or have it personaly.

It does look like any other log mani, and as long as the internal weld's are grinded off and ported there shouldn't be any problem.

It get's my vote

Experience?

It has been PROVEN that a log style manifold can create lot's of HP.

There are many log style manifold's that work with 600HP engine's.

It is a fact, and even shown by SAE, that a Log style mani will have a LITTLE more lag in the system, but have no real power effect's.
