Default Anyone using the F22 STR Cast Manifold or simular? What downpipe are you using?

OK... Heres the manifold I have. I am using a t3/t4 hybrid turbo.



Heres the downpipe I have. Its going to take quite a bit of modification to work but I dont think I have much of and option.





Any insight. Is there any other downpipes available for an accord? For this type of manifold?

Since it puts the turbo straight out its kinds hard.


TIA

You're going to have to cut up that whole downpipe just to make make it work.

You may not be able to use that mandrel bend coming off the 5 bolt either. may need to be pie'd. (if you are keeping your a/c & p/s).

It looks like a nicely fabbed downpipe though just suxs it has to go back under the torch...

You should be able to make it work it just sux you gotta cut it all up. You may need a little more material so you can clear the pan. Thats the only prob i can foresee.

good little project if you can tig.
