Default Turbo Manifold"s

All do I'm aware that the best turbo manifold's are the ones that are custom build, I'm looking to se what is the best over the counter turbo manifold for the $, my idea is to cut the flange and attach our 'none' Honda flange to it with aims to save some $,or if someone can direct me somewhere to have one custom build for under $700.00, without shipping the car, lol ,

any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated

I have been building Hyundai manifolds for about 5 years now.

I'd measure the port spacing on the header side and then see how close it is to some of the honda stuff. I used to use a B16 Intake Manifold on my Mazda Miata with just a new flange.

Also you might want to show a picture of the space you have to work with? Is this a full drag car, or street car?

What do you plan to do about the weak hyundai tranny? I popped a hole in my brothers 2004 Tiburon tranny just banging a gear!

The tranny's aren't that weak I have right at 500whp and I have only tore up one tranny and on that I stripped the spider gears, on the new 06 Elantra tranny with a welded diff I have had no issues. I launch at 6500rpm @ 10psi with 24.5x8x13 Slicks.

Well.. I killed one with a hard 1 - 2 shift. Hole in the tranny and leaked fluid! Hyundai did not cover it under warranty and I had to find a used one and put it in. The car was a nightmare so we got rid of it!

I’m looking at the exhaust, the intake we have as you can see on that picture, for the exhaust I really could use some advice of what could be the ideal type, I know that this board has a great deal of knowledge when it comes to 4 cylinders, size and location I think is crucial . So I’m all ears, is been overwhelming with the responses from people willing to help, to all of you we thank you!
