if your going to get a tuned ecu dont bother with the 370's....they'll max out around the same time as the stock mafs. Go with atleast 550's if you go with the z32 this way when the boost bug bites you can up the boost and have the fuel to back it up.

its way easyer to buy one allready made or make one....i dont recomend choping a stock one because if u plan just to chop the and weld a flang for the turbo, it will be 2 low...and if you plan on choping the flango to the head well thats just a waste of time because u deed everything else still....so cheapest way to go is ebay...or if u want somehting nice then make one, have one made or buy from someone respectfull

why would it be too low?? Thats what i'm doing on my suzuki esteem project. My question to the OP tho is why not buy a ka24de manifold. if u want a top mount then try and make one it's no big deal really. good luck with whatever you end up doing.

what turbo are you going with?? that'll make all the difference on what set up to run.

for the oil drain. you can use a pump for a low mounted turbo then thats another $100 min your out of by trying to be cheap at which point might as well just get an egay cast or fab one your self

the constantly flow of oil will force it out the return...ive done this one before lol but not on a ka24 but still

well ---- then why do we even run oil returns. last time i checked oil returns were "gravity" fed or if its lower than the pan or remote mount its got a scavange pump. but ---- next turbo project you have run the return hose up and over the valve cover into the interior of the car and into your ass se how much the oil wants to force its way in there. i would say smart ass but more like slick ass

if he's barely extending it down he shouldnt have an issue...if u run it behind the head light then u'll need a pump. yea its gravity fed, but he's not saying the turbo's gonna be lower then the pan

Oxide_Zer0yome 07-02-2009 11:19 AM

he's talking about it being like 4" lower then a "stock" location it SHOULD drain fine and gravity feed should work. Unless he is remotely mounting it...
