Default My first manifold (2jz, no ****!)

First time ever building a manifold, and i think it turned out really well. T6 manifold, built to fit a gt47-88mm turbo in my mk3 supra:

Tacked in place and ready for welding:





Mocked in the car:






Routing the dual wastegates and downpipe:




Just have one more gate to route and have it welded up!

Looks good! My first was a twin scroll for my 2jzge powered 240sx. But Im only using a 72mm turbo!

What are you using in place of the distributor? I welded a bracket on the head for a gte cam sensor with gte cams and also a gte oil pump with the crank cog and sensor. Its basically a gte motor now.

I am using a hall sensor with magnets machined into the back of my adjustable cam gears. A few ppl are using this setup and seems to be working pretty well.

turbos that size most come with single scroll housings, twin scrolls are nearly impossible to find(read, custom)

This was my first choice but I ended up doing the other method a lot cheaper. Ive seen the magnet in the cam gear on alot of na-t's and they work like a charm. Good luck with the build!

I think in the picture it was a powerglide attached to the engine. I ended up trading it for a th400 that ill be using instead. Thanks for all the compliments! I really like how it has turned out so far!
