Thanks, I'm building new manifolds for rado's car. The prototype head we did needs some time on an engine dyno to get figured out so we're putting a stock one back on for the time being. Shoule be testing by the end of next week.

Yes, i did build the manifold, as well as everything else on the car. The fuel pump works like that w/o an electric pump to prime. If it hasn't been started in a while then it takes a min. of cranking to build some pressure. No biggie though, a little starting fluid in the turbo and it'll start right up.

i kept writing something and then deleting it cuz i didnt think that it sounded good enough to give the propper props that that car deserves.


it kinda looks like the same setup on garys car with the twin gates, i always liked that alot. its nice to see a setup like that working IN FAVOR of the twin scroll and not against by collecting the gasses into one big gate. if a gt35r puts down around 700 horses..... then this guy right here should be a well over one thousand horse engine.... right?
