just tacking up a few bits on the manifold should have most of it done tomorow [IMG][/IMG]

 

Not a lot of room for the othe runners... good luck!

 

The fitment looks awesome! How are you going to route runners 2 and 3? For ease of installation and closest way to equal length I would assume you'd probably want to take 1 and 4 and move them to the back.

 

ive plenty room hopefully iget to put the final pices together today il post some pics up cheers

 

he could always make it a ramhorn manifold and have TONS of room from the other angle.

Looks good.
cheers.

 

Looks like he'll probably go under 1 and 4 and come up from the sides like a ramhorn.

I can't tell from where I'm looking now, but is the number one runner fitted properly to the elbow coming off the flange?

Also, is it just me, or are the ports on your head flange REALLY small?

 

i don't think he can snake 2 and 3 under 1 and 4 as it may hit the turbo...regardless, 1 and 4 should have gone onto the other two ports on the collector IMHO

and your right Sov, those head flange ports do look really small for some reason

Looks good man! Looks like you have great fitup

Make sure, that you bolt the head flange (or any flanges) to a head (turbo, gate, matching flange), or chunk of metal when you do your final solid welds. If not it will warp to ****. My first manifold I didn't, it took the machine shop over 2 hr to fix it. Now I use old heads, no problem with warping.

 

will do I've an old head and turbo ready for when I start to weld ,il ne drilling out for an external wastegate also ,thanks for the input guys,and the helpful hints

 

A starlet manifold, we make tonnes in a similar way. You just need bigger preps, especially on the collector.

 

Yes Ricky seen some of your stuff must say it the best around,friend of mine made a manifold on the same spec as the one I'm doing here he made 370 Bhp on the same manifoldneeds a bigger turbo to push for more manifold is doing the job perfect as in flow wise

 

Yes, I did some flow testing on one of ours and it'll flow 600hp without problems.

Where are you based?

im living in Ireland

 

Looks good.

 

heres and update coming along fine must say not to bad for my first manifold [IMG][/IMG]

 

solid work!

 

good work need better pics tho plz

 

As far as mock-up/prep goes - nicely done! Looks really great!

Good luck!

 

il put better pics up when i get a chance to weld it want to fit it up to the car just to double check

 

just a few mild steel bends for another manifold il be doing mybe a close ramhorn style one
[IMG][/IMG]

 

looks good

 

Real nice bro

 

looks like a nice solid manifold man, keep the pics coming.

 

just doing another manifold mocking up still waiting on some mildsteel flanges to be made just sitting aganist the stainless flanges lol [IMG][/IMG]
