nice setup. I don't know about that manifold though With all the money spent on some good quality parts, why not get a better welding/looking manifold setup?

 

how much do you have into your turbo build? and that manifold looks iffy

 

Everything looks awesome except for the mani...my turds are prettier

 

The manifold was used on a friend's y8 motor, but his gasket started leaking causing all that black crud. If I didn't pay so much for it I would sell it for a new one. I have approx. $4-5k into it so far, and a long ways from being done unfortunately.

 

that manifold looks like **** but for the rest of the parts good luck on the build

looks good so far, good luckk
i just finished up my turboD build

and i would have gone wiht a ramhorn too but i wanted to keep my ac

 

skunk2 manifold will hit your fire wall and BDL 70 is kinda over kill for the Skunk2 66mm inlet on the mani i should know i have both on my allmotor set up

 

nice parts like everyone else said but that manifold looks pretty bad. let us know the numbers when the build is finished

 

 

Haha, that's Fnan's old turbo manifold. It'll hold, it's got weld after weld on it!

Looks good man. Can't wait to see this beast on the road!!

I hope it doesn't hit the firewall, I've seen plenty on sohc motors in Civic's. As far as a 70mm BDL on the 66mm inlet of the Skunk2 manifold, I had it ported to 68-69mm (couldn't go 70mm due to the IACV ports).

Thanks for all the great comments everybody I am looking at other Ramhorn manifolds to see what I can get for a decent price. I will be updating with 2 new pics tonight or tomorrow, they are the complete head build sheet and some other thing the shop gave me (forgot what it shows lol).

 

here is a shot look at how close it is in my wagon look at the TPS sensor back of the manifold

 

Is that in an 88-91 Civic wagon? If so, I believe they have a smaller/more crowded engine bay than an EG.

 

yes

 

I think in my EG I should have a little better clearance than you did, but it will still be close. Are you at least happy with the manifold and throttle body?

 

yea its cool i can feel the power its a bit faster

That company is owned and run by a friend of mine's from work. He tig welds all of his manifolds and does them himself. Very good quality manifolds. Check him out, because that mani that you've got does look kind of iffy.
