Got around to building around t3 manifold finally. This particular manifold is 38mm flanged going on a stock gsr with a 57trim. Overall I am very happy with the way it came out. Heres the pics.















Hope you guys like.

 

You should cut the two front collector pipes about half an inch longer.

 

I'm assuming this is the thread you wanted me to check out from your PM? You sent me to the weld/fab page instead haha. But yea, those welds are very beautiful.....you're just teasing me now though cause I'm itchin' for a topmount

why? if you measure it accurately, this design is probably closer to true equal length. i think it looks good.

 

thx guys

 

what do you use to polish up the bends?

 

looks like you'll have to cut away the rad support to be able to attach the wastegate, and why put the wastegate on one runner only?

otherwise it looks pretty good, shiny i like shiny!

 

Awesome welds, man. Looks like you threw a divided t4 flange/collector in the pics as a bonus to look at.

 

Looks like you threw a divided t4 flange/collector in the pics as a bonus to look at. Yes i did...hope u like. To answer those ?'s, the collector isnt divided obviously so it doesnt matter that it comes off the side. In other words have had no problems with controlling boost. I weld them that way to avoid cracking. You do have to run a half size rad to fit it but most people run them anyways and id rather have a strong weld then risking a crack........will be putting this on very soon along with our 3" dp...stay tuned

 

I wanna see some inside pics of penetration partically the wastegate port from inside the collector

wonder what that's for ?

 

I'm thinking for a turbo manifold. Hrrrm.....

So you don't have to weld in little half inch sections of pipe.

 

Ryan the manifold looks awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

 

thx billy....were also starting to make a divided t4 manifold the the ef/crx to fit a gt42! Mocking it up doesnt look like its going to be fun but hell i love a challenge.....

cant wait to see that

 

Truly beautiful beads. Not a fan of the colour still on, but that's me.
Polished bends look sweet, quality stuff.
Inside pics would be cool, as mentioned.

 

sweet beads, looks like theres a handful of mediocre tie ins but nothing that would be problematic. do you have any issues with boostcreep at all? in for pics of the inside..

 

Havent had any issues with boostcreep. The car this manifold is goin on is a stock gsr with a precision 57 trim so ill let you know. Hes switching from a log manifold to mine so..........I will take pics of the inside soon. I dont have a digi camera i usually borrow my buddies when hes not working his 2 jobs!!! Starting the ef/crx t4 top mount 2 nite. Stay tuned

those welds on the collector look amazing!

 

Great consistency throughout the whole manifold, very nice.

 

are you gonna post a before/after dyno with his log mani vs. your ramhorn?

Unfortunately no. My current manifold is warped and it would be a waste of money to get a shitty number do to lost exhaust gas. All I can really do is give my track time which was 14.1 at 101 w/ a 2.6() 60', I suppose you can get an estimate from there.

Boo on you!!! I was hoping for the same thing Unless someone else beats me to the log vs. ryan's manifold dyno test, then you'll have one hopefully around the end of June/July zeimbo.

Slightly off topic Ryan, I just realized two problems I might have with using your manifold....check your PM's

 

those aint no big problems mang. Well make adjustments to make it work.
