I'm running this manifold:


with a T3/T4. I'll be dumping power steering if it doesnt fit. AC is already gone. The thing I'm really worried about now is how the hell I'm gonna fit a downpipe. Perhaps I'll run without one LOL.

Thanks 90DX for the link, I was searching for that!

Ive done multiple kits on EF's and have come to the conlusion that a traction bar setup is mandatory as it fixes all the headaches you get trying to boost 88-91's.

Werd. Traction bars eliminate the JDM slant and down pipe issues.

you know that big piece of metal that the rad/condensor/front tranny mount bolt to, thats the front x-member. its the big fat bitch thats in the way. an aftermarket one is basically a tube.

I did a crazy angle and moved my battery into the trunk so i could move the rad over some more. I also got a thicker rad coming from lsd and i know its going to fit with a slim fan.
