i jus picked up a t61 for my project!!!!

it has a split exhaust housing which is supose to be good since it such a huge dam turbo which is gona be goin on a z6

my question is about what manifold to use?

anyone make one for a d series?

jus emailed full-race and lovefab and am waiting a response from them

any freindly info will be cool

 

do a search, there are some good threads. That turbo is way too big.

 

yea i know its too big but i got it for a good price so thats y i hopped on it!

gonna do a search now

 

Divided housings only help if you have a divided manifold so the exhaust pulses don't mix until right before the turbine wheel. No one makes a D series divided mani for a for a reason. you better sell it if you want to turbo a d16 and spool before 8K. Even if you want to make huge power a smaller turbo would work much better.

 

well i dont care lol

im just gonna see what happens. **** maybe ill be a guinepig, but i got a good deal on the turbo so might as well use it!

 

if you must use it make sure you build a divided manifold to take advantage of the quicker spool from the split housing. this must be a drag only car?

 

yea this is gonna be for my drag car

might see some street action

me and my fabracator are gonna try and see if we can make a manifold for it ourselves i know Cody can make one for me but $900 is a chunk so ima try it out myself

 

thought Turbonetics have some explanation for application of tangental turbine housing on their site. ARGHHH I will look for a link
