Hi... a friend of mine made for me this manifold. The price was $100 bucks.
I know... what can you expect for $100... but... i think it can take 200rwhp... i´m not looking for 300 or 400 right now.

I´m running an ls-vtec in which i will add a turbo later.



The flange is for 38mm i think... and it was made to hold a KKK K26.
I accept any critic... i´ve already paid this... so... i don´t care too much.

At last, but not least... u get what u pay for.

PD. This was made in Mexico.

 

well, i've seen far worse. i kinda like the logo thing tacked on, but not sure what it is for. i didn't know they had welders in mexico... was that 100 pesos?

 

hahaha thats like saying I didn't know they had welders in canada

 

the welds look like crap.....and so does the wastegate placement.

it will work.......but probably not very well

 

i think it can take 200rwhp

^^^ haha just thought this was funny, ls/vtec and Rear Wheel Horse Power ....

But back on topic it is ugly and not designed well. but for $100 it will work and should hold up well.

 

Ugly, but so are mine

 

if it doesnt leak itll work fine.

 

No leaks.......some of those flange welds look like they might. You should brace it in my opinion. Alot of the welds are pretty shotty, supporting the weight will probably reduce the constant cracking.

 

Thx for the answers so far. do you think is it worth the $100 dlls?

 

it's worth about 24 pesos dude.

 

Looks like its welded with mig and trying to imitate tig welds = porous crap with not much penetration...

 

for a bill you can't really complain, but as others have said you should definately build a support brace from the block to the turbo so that the weight of the turbo is not being supported entirely by the manifold.

 

um why would a mig welded manifold need bracing? it is more then likely made of pipe not thin guage tubing. so the need to brace isn't there. plus have you seen the size of the turbo he is using it is tiny.

 

he wasn't claiming that the MIG itself is not a decent form of welding, what he was saying was that when someone tries to MIG something to resemble TIG, it will not have the correct amount of penetration, and will most likely be porous and leak.

 

Park next to this guy, you will be the baller in the parking lot

WTF difference does it make that it's MIG welded? The fact is, is that it's sh*t welded, and for piece of mind take 20 minutes and make simple brace.

 

I better weld one by my own.

Awsome, can i get one of those on ebay?

 

wow $100 for that........... FREE maybe but $100.....nah

 

The funny thing is...If it doesn't leak it will make 250 at 10lbs easy.If your motor is in good shape.And everthing else is set up correct.besides that ugly manifold.Yes 240 or 250 no problem.

 

what was that car above? looks mitsubishi.

 

wow..........sucks

 

looks cheap, hmt **** doesn't fly these days. Hope it last more than a year
