Man I always look at your manifolds and they are the best ones out their, I was just wondering what kind of piping do you use and where do you get it, thanks.

Re: a manifold for a different kind of honda .. (2K_TEG)
its for a mini formula car. The old car was a 100% carbon fiber tub chassis, but this one is supposed to be a cromo skeleton with carbon fiber skin on it (i think) pretty cool car tho. About 320 lbs and 100 hp! and best of all, its not meant to go in a straight line, even tho it does that very well.
for whoever was wondering, that turbo is a garrett Gt12, not the VNT, standard poppet wastegate. I think this is the same turbo on the 1.8t? T too small.

Re: a manifold for a different kind of honda .. (2K_TEG)
yea no **** the restrictor and TB placement rules **** our power output up so much!!! sucks. If i could put the TB where i wanted it to go, and no restricotor and a t25 BB it would do 280 at the wheels 
we built our own standalone, from teh diy-efi ppl. couldnt afford to buy one and the haltech got stolen.

Re: a manifold for a different kind of honda .. (2K_TEG)
thats why the restrictor is removeable
to be honest tho, im sick of the whole SAE program. Im surrounded by a bunch of nerds who think math will explain everything, while taking far too many assumptions into account, and have no real world experience. Above all that, they are arrogant about it too. No race experience at all and certainly no fab expereince. ahh its 11pm and im venting. i hate engineers haha.

Re: a manifold for a different kind of honda .. (FFgeoff)
Not to be a dick but I'm an engineer, and I experienced that all day at my old job then I told them to suck it. Now I get from people on this board especially with thermodyanamics and high compression. They just do't understand I've already built some of these engines that's why I'm working on one with high compression and turbo. Yet I still haven't found a tubular mani. that accepts A/C (I've got an idea that's been proven already I just need to get it together $$). I'd ask you to make one but you said it was too much work and time. I probably wouldn't be able to afford it anyways though. I'm not trying to whine it's just aggravating. You know know what I mean? Even us engineers experience that kind of crap from our fellow engineers. I think only the ones that lack common sense are like that though. Some are just plain dumb. Book-smart but plain dumb.

i could make a manifold similar to this style (and tom/ek9t's/hytech) manifold which would keep a/c but i dont know what to do about the radiator hose and the IC issues... this would not be a manifold for the standard enthusiast.

Re: a manifold for a different kind of honda .. (FFgeoff)
Pics? I would be very interested to see what type of vehicle you are putting together! What "circuit" do you race in, or rather, what is the name of the organization, and who is building this car? I am really interested, sounds fu*king cool! How did you get involved in it? Basically, I want to know more, and uh...
