Which manifold for Full Race back door intercooler?
I have a 'full race style' back door entry intercooler and was wondering which manifolds would work with it, other than the $1100 FR manifold of course 
I have a b18c in an EG hatch with no AC.

IMO you could use a variety of Manifolds. The IC is just going to be moved a few inches (left,right, up, down) to adapt to the placement that the different manfiolds will put the turbo. Regardless of the manifold though the compressor will have to be on the drivers side.

It matters because it kind of defeats the purpose to have to run bends in your pipe from the turbo to intercooler. The back door entry intercooler means you would ideally run a 'straight' pipe right from the compressor to the intake of the intercooler.
I thought that any "driver's side compressor" manifold would work, but I wanted to be sure. Thanks for the help, Phil. I am looking at the Neukin manifold, it looks to be good quality and affordable too
