First of all I want to thank chris (DIRep972) for giving me a hand and staying up so late to help me. You have come a long way in 1yr. kid.

Fast facts:
- A rev-hard down pipe will fit with not cutting, no modifications, and no rewelding. It bolted 100% on and I was happy about that.

- I was able to retain stock AC, fans, and head lights.

- I will need to replace my radiator fan with a slimmer one because I cant fit the air filter on. But I might be able to modify my intake some to make it fit.

- I dont know at what RPM I get full boost at because my boost maps on the EMS are not made yet.

- this turbo/ manifold are bad ***.

 

Looks good Art, however, you should've gone for the bling bling inline pro

 

nice setup man. Congrats. Tell us when you have some more infos on spool time etc.......

 

Would I be correct in assuming there is much less prone to boost spiking since the wg sits now almost in the center of all the runners whereas revhard sits mainly on 3rd and 4th runner.

I am under the impression boost spike is partially caused by manifold design. Am I correct in assuming this manifold is at least superior to a rev hard manifold in that respect if not others also?

 

I never did have boost spikes with the rev-hard, but it did have over 100k miles on the manifold is over 3yrs old. It cracked over time and was a great manifold.

Now, I have seen alot of spikes with the drag mainly due to the design of it.

Yea I was told rev hard is much better in that drag tends to spike alot more, and rev hards cast iron manny doesn't spike nearly as much if at all....

I just don't wanna run into spike problems with joe p mbc, rev hard manifold and tial wg... think its an issue?

 

Well the 3 rev-hard kits Ive seen here locally didnt spike. I dont see an issue.

 

Looks sweet Art. Does PT make a T3/60-1 equivalent?

 

Was the 90deg elbow nessessairy to clear the hood, or would it fit without the bracket?

 

nice

 

looks good.!

 

looks nice Art.

 

Since they stoped the GB on those PT turbo's....

where can you buy them?.....and how much are the PT60's?

 

Very Nice Any dyno numbers?

 

Art, thats sexy looking, I cant wait to get a ride!!

Are those zip ties on the thermal wrap?

 

sweet man!

sorry I couldn't make it out there on Sunday. Lookin forward to Wednesday

 

nice, but that little wastgate neck makes me cringe!! why is there rust on a stainless manifold

i think i need to make you a stainless elbow.

 

if someone could please tell me where to get that wastegate elbow i would REAAAALLLY appreciate it...my wastegate is lunching on my carbon hood and making it spider web a little bit

 

Looks clean Art...cant wait to hear how she does when you get some maps in the aem...

 

Looks really good art.


Rob

 

you could make me one to man! i need one!!


Rob

 

lookin real good. u got any pix of the turbo before u put it in the car or at least a better pic of the turbo fitment itself?

 

I have this same Turbo/Manifold setup....its great
