Hello everyone. Has anyone here used this manifold or know anyone who has used it? It's an ebay cast. I want to know if a .58/.63 t3/t4 will fit in my 99' Si without having to shave the block. If you know where I can see pictures or if you can post pictures of the manifold installed on a 99-00 Si that would be great. Thanks in advance.

 

looks like that same design as my inlinepro cast iron. im assuming no, you do not have to shave your block.

 

x2, i have that manifold, you dont have to shave your block.

 

Looks just like my manilfold.... B18B with a .63 Precision T3


please excuse the HUGE filter.. it was temporary as my mini filter was being cleaned.

 

if the turbo has a 4-bolt exhaust discharge there may be block shaving requried, 5-bolt should clear just fine (maybe a small notch to webbing)

 

Thanks alot guys. It looks like it'll work. I'm running a t3 right now and want to run a t3/t4 but my manifold won't clear the block with the bigger turbo. If anyone else wants to give referance feel free to do so.

 

what mani do you have now?
are you running it with the compressor on the passenger side? (AC compatible)
what turbo do you have? (4 or 5 bolt exhaust?)

 

That looks like the blox not the inlinepro. Inlinepro is stainless steel not cast iron.

I used the Blox with a Peakboost Blowzilla and no shaving except we turned the turbo around so it would stick out to radiator side.

 

The manifold I have now was made by a local tech. It's a/c compatible, mild steel, and is tubular and I'm running it with the compressor on the passenger side. The turbo is a Nissan .60 t3, 5 bolt exhaust, internal wastegate.

 

any pics of your current mani?

the cast mani should fit a t3/t4 5-bolt just fine. what do you plan to do for a downpipe?

 

I got pics of the current set up. I'll post it later on today. As for a downpipe, I'll just get some bends and have it fabricated.

 

I have a very similar manifold (rev hard) and had to use a spacer to have it clear.

 

what turbo? i ran i revhard with no isses but you have to use a 5-bolt turbo.

 

I ran a 4 bolt gt3076r, maybe that's why it wouldnt clear.

 

yeah pretty much all cast log manis are designed for 5-bolt. inlinepro made a 4-bolt specific mani for a while that spaced the turbo out for that reason.

 

I didnt know that. I always thought it was stupid my turbo wouldnt fit. You learn something new every day!

 

dpetro, here are the pics.

 

so you dont think that mani will fit a t3/t4?

 

Clean engine bay. That deserves a better manifold

 

also be prepared to run a wastegate elbow to clear the head and/or hood.

 

Thanks e85. The turbo is about 1/4" away from the block with the current manifold and it's a small t3.

 

i guess either way you are going to an external wastegate so a new mani is needed.
