It's not speedfactory's, its SPA and im sure they just sell them. From what I heard they have terrible clearance because the turbo is placed very high

Yes those manifolds are made by SPA. Depending on your application the fitment is not the greatest for larger turbos, clearance issues on the hood from what I remember.

It sits the turbo at a clocked angle. There was company that sold the flange adapter to make it sit normal but they went out of business. panducky was their name. There is a user on here that makes and sells them and also uses this manifold on his car. turbo-ls is his user name


Here is the website so you can see what I'm talking about. http://www.spaclockingflange.com/Sales.html

I doubt the flow/spool is any better with the turbo facing up, just go with a normal cast manifold like inlinepro's! That way you won't have to worry about any clearance issues and if your really worried about performance spend the $1500 and get a real top mount!
