anyone using the SS autocrap manifold?...
 
yea i got one. a LONG time ago...
anyone using it in a D16 setup with t3/04e turbo?...
the compresser is .60 and when i tried it on the edge of the compresser outlet is hitting the block, where the tanny bolt ends at..
should i grind it or what... :-\freaking SS crap....still want to use it tho...i`d try to brace the ---- out of it see if it still breaks or not... ;)

Can't you rotate the housing to clear it?

Re:anyone using the SS autocrap manifold?...
 
i like A/C ;). ;D
yea, i know if i put it in theother way it will fit....
but when i brought that ---- according to ~~THEM~~ it clears AC... ::) but i guess :-X..
ifi would have to give up AC, i`d rather get another manifold. ;D

I beleive you just have to shave the block where it's hitting with a dremel tool. It's pretty common with other manifolds besides the SS though too.

Re:anyone using the SS autocrap manifold?...
 
but where it hits is acutally where the tanny bolt ends at...
and i will have to shave like at least 10 mm to get it clear ... :-\

i had to grind away a load of metal and my setup is HF manifold with T25 turbo... I think its pretty normal

Grind the damnn block.
It will blow up after a few runs.

i bought one before i read the reviews on this site, it is crap too! the flange where u bolt the manifold to the cylinder head is warped, put a straight edge across it and u will want to smash it! i made a jig to hold it and resurfaced it on a milling machine. otherwise it would leak horribly! worthless!

Which way did you orient the turbo? Compressor to the Tranny, or Turbine to the Tranny?

We're having trouble with the original design clearing A/C also. The Turbo and the A/C fan run into each other. We are working on a new design, but larger turbos like the T3/T4 may have block clearance problems.

the intake side facing tanny

Re:anyone using the SS autocrap manifold?...
 
this is ----! i ordered one today for my integra before reading any of this.i wil be pissed if it doesnt clear AC. Why would anyone want to grind away a section of their block? I guess there will always be someone on ebay who will buy it ;D

I just picked one up used for only one dyno session for 75 and it was braced with some extra bars but hell 75 shipped and I'll give it a shot! What kind of wastegate do people use with these and what kind of flange does it have for it?

tranceminister 03-17-2004 08:26 PM

Re:anyone using the SS autocrap manifold?...
 
Tial/Deltagate style wastegate flange.
