its and SFP manifold i had custom done for my greddy tdo5-18g turbo so I could get rid of the internal wastegate and my new HKS standard wastegate with a 9.7 psi spring.

 

how much did that cost you? looks nice.

 

Looks great. How did you remove the internal wastegate and block it off?

 

i had the flapper welded shut.

the manifold cost me $425 and the wastegate was $330.

 

Doesn't the greddy td05 us a square inlet flange with a round port? That looks like a t3 flange not the mitsu style.

 

Make sure you coat that SFP manifold with a high temp paint of some kind because it will rust.

 

is that made from weld els or is it just 16 gauge steel?

 

What kind of paint could you put on it to make it not rust. Wont it melt any kind of paint, even the FLAME proof paint? I need to paint mine too, what do I paint it with????

 

Wouldn't it be wiser to just get it JetHot Coated? MOST high temp paints will melt off easily. (Hot hot do you think the manifold gets?)

 

do you keep ur A/C with that? and can you take some pics of the mani attached to the turbo ... thanks .. I'm thinking about doing this too!

 

yes you can keep your a/c with this manifold. I will post pics as soon as I install it.

 

The Greddy does not use a Mistu flange. It uses a Garrett T-25 inlet flange. Also, would you have to weld the door shut, could you n ot just disconnect the vaccuum source from the dashpot? Those internal gates are held pretty tight...
Nice manifold BTW! Are before and after dynoes possible?

 

I am going to weld it shut to be safe.

The after dyno should only be alittle more but it is not for power reasons that i am switching manifolds. With my sleeved and built 2.0 ltr, bored gsr I am having a lot of problems with boost spike because it is b00sting the $hit out of the turbo, so more of a safety piece for my motor so I can regulate the b00st more accurately.

 

Looks good Joe, when you bringing it out to the meet?

 

nice, I might join u with this .... is this on a Civic or a Teg?

 

I imght bring it out tomorrow if I have time to put it all on.

I used VHT 1500 degree ceramic coating. Holding up just fine.

 

where can I get that?

 

DEI silicon exhaust coating. I can't remember the rating, but it looks great, won't fade, and will not come off.

Comes in Black or silver.

Can buy it here:

Hey boosted, i have that wastegate also.. How did you find out what psi your spring was rated it?? Im thinking mine is 12psi but i havent taken the top off to verify... With the HKS you tell the spring by the color of the spring correct???

Let me know

How do you categorize that mani? It's not log or full race. Tubular?

Since when is full race a style of manifold. It is a tubular, just not long tube.

 

hurry up finish putting it on so we an go beat up on some stage 2 gti's

 

How do you like the HKS wastegate or have you used it yet?

 

it is being installed right now so i will have pics up later this week.
