it took awhile to do the manifold because i started when class was still in session. i had only a few hour a day to work on it and i didnt work everyday. downpipe and dumptube took about a day to fab and weld.

all the cuts on the manifold were done with an air powered hand held cutting wheel, so it took some time. i didnt have a bandsaw to work with.

this was the first manifold i attempted, and ive only been tig welding for a couple of months, so the manifold was a good practice. im learning a lot as i go. im gonna attempt a top mount soon for a buddy.

the car has already been tuned. i just replaced the manifold, wastegate, and downpipe. everything left the same from the previous setup.

the old setup i was running 15 psi but it creeps to 17-18 by redline. it netted me 425. with this setup it holds a solid 17psi to redline.
