I got a 16g turbo what manifold can I use a t3 t4? I heard I had to use a t25 manifold I found a bseries t25 cast iron manifold will that wrk?? I'm very new to the turbo scene any info will help? Is there any negatives regarding the eBay cast iron manifold?

 

i'd avoid ebay unless its a brand name being sold on ebay (like garrett)

 

???

I have a JDM Sport mani and its been working great for about 11k miles

ebay FTW hahahahahahaha

 

11K. That's what, a few months? And that is considered to be a long term testimate to its durability? C'mon LastGenEK, you're better than this. Don't put yourself down to a lower level by trying to promote items that have the lifespan of an insect

 

God you make me feel so stupid^

All i hear tells you to buy, revhard, lovefab,spoolin,etc. and all those great brands when it comes down to it I simply cant afford those kind of parts.

My car already has taken me 2 years of full time $10 per hour work just to Buy the GSR motor and tranny and building the engine ( and thats me doing 100% of the engine building and install)

I would have to say Im jealous and wish I had the funds

 

I'm not trying to make you feel stupid. But I don't think it would be a good idea for us all to leave you with a false sense of security in what you've accomplished. Most of the redundant comments of "spoolin'/lovefab/revhard" etc, have been done for a reason; to show that in 2009 there are better choices of parts and materials than what was used back in 2001-2005. There's no reason to try and reinvent the wheel with substandard materials any longer.

Hell, we're all broke and wish we had funds to make the perfect setup. Many of us don't make much money either, but afterall, this is an investment of time, effort, and money into a project. Bottom line, this is an expensive sport. If you don't want those 3 resources wasted for nothing, get the right parts, and take your time. I've seen plenty of people make $10/hour, and still get a good reliable setup that can work for YEARS and hundreds of thousands of miles. Not a couple of months and 11K.

My intention wasn't to insult you, but to get you to realize that other people look at this forum for serious advice to help them on the thousands of dollars that they've invested. Simply because you felt that it was meeting YOUR particular standards doesn't mean that it works for everyone. Better to think on the safe than risky.
