Ummm.. but for how long? Sure you can take a sawzall and have a party with it, but the flange on this mani looks like it is about to fall off with the bolts exposed like that. Not something I would trust for 600. Wondering what he will use for management on his budget... and he better be pretty good at tuning on his own too.

But otherwise, sure it looks great.

 

i seen this setup too, its on there pretty good, and hes using an FMU

 

me im not gonna do a homemade turbo kit on my lude but for him i hope it works for awhile . Guess we will see how long this lasts lol.

 

What turbo manifold did he use?

I have personally compared the DSM manifold to the H23 and H22's exhaust manifolds, and the DSM's ports line up perfectly w/ the H23, but it's WAY off from the H22.

That's a horrible manifold for the H22, if he did indeed use the DSM manifold on the H22 head.

 

he used a dsm mani on the h22 but i think he willowed out his hea dports to line up. I dont know if he mentions that in the post but u could check it out not sure thou.

 

Is this the same kid from homemade turbo? I still stand by that his head does not look like an H22.

 

the head in the pic above looks like the head on my h22

 

wire madness

hrmm the dsm manifolds ports match the h23 but does it bolt up?

 

h23 dmn setup is common bolt up issues thou but most who do the h23 dsm setup drill the mani holes wider to fit onto studs.

naw this kid just did this out of pure eurge for boost he doesnt post or run a turbo site. This was just a weekend project.

 

f22a, h23 and first gen dsm all use the same port/head pattern,

i believe the only difference is one small hole in the middle that is easy to drill and is required for either f22a or h23, not sure

 

now that's ghetto fab.

I am interested to see how long this lasts on his ride. I am unclear on how he even got the mani to fit the head. I tried one time to make it fit, but it just doesn't seem to go. The ports fit fine but the bolt holes are way off.

 

ill try to keep it updated ^^

yeah, he posted this setup on homemadeturbo.com also. right now its runnin pretty good, but its not tuned yet, i think he said on tuesday its getting it tuned

 

I'm going to have to call bullshit on this one.

In the post he said the ports matched up perfectly; I have personally seen an H22 head and exhaust manifold gasket up against a DSM turbo manifold in my garage, and the H22 comes nowhere close to fitting the DSM mani. ONLY the H23 and F22 fit.

He also said he made it all fit with only 20 min's of work w/ the Sawzall..................

 

i dont know if it fits or not but this thing is legit. Seen it in person last wednesday

 

yes this is legit, ive seen it in person also, IT IS AN H22 WITH A DSM HEADER!!!

grr huhh.. uhhhh its a header?

 

also, wtf isn't he using metal piping for the charge pipe? It just looks really weird to me.

I don't think boost + budget go well together in the long term.

Confused..

 

I think the guy meant it was a manifold haha...

 

I have lined up the dsm mani to the h22 head and it doesn't look like it will fit at all. Don't know how he made it work.

Also, he said in his post that he hasn't hit WOT or revved above 4k yet.
