looks no different than anything lese on ramhorn...compressor must be on the drivers side...and youll most likely have to hack up you a/c mount...the turbo is massive!

right now its undivided...but i plan on makin a topmount split scroll mani this winter if the funds allow it

thats the point. i havnt decided yet if i want to make a ram or a topmount.

i think a topmount will be my best bet if i want to try and keep the p.s on the stock mount.

ps. will a 1.5mm wall thickness 2" pipes be ok?

thAnks,

i think 2" is a lil much and going to kill the exh velocity...i think the norm is 1.5" sch 10 or 40....and good luck keepin ps w/ a topmount...that compressor is massive...and its alil aqward...look for gt42 setups for starters...if that can fit...hll this should be easy...and id also recomend running a split scroll mani...itll def help spool a lil bit and make some extra power....

if your tryin to keep ps...id prob go w/ a ramhorn style yet mix-up the runners to get a split scroll like ams's evo mani....

Depends on which ramhorn, if you are making the manifold and have the turbo you can make anything work.
Here is one I did a while back with an hy35w

I wasn't trying to keep the power steering, but I'm sure it was possible. And that is an hy35w..the first gen version did not have the elbow on the outlet. It has the vband holding the turbine side on and a single entry housing. I ran this turbo for years on my old ford 2.3. Made 420at the wheels with it

This is my HY35W(not all HYs have the right angle outlet); In the EF chassis the turbo barely fits; I don't think any off the shelf manifold would work.

What's up with the taper on the downpipe?

4" to 3" reducer. I don't really see the need for a full 4" exhaust on my setup.
