if i cant source an adapter for a t-25 onto an hf manifold for a decent price.. i'm considering cutting the flange off of an HF manifold and welding on one for the turbo... anyone know where i can source some decently thick cast iron?? my only idea is a cast iron frying pan.. they're cheap and.. well cast iron... anyone know of any other places to get it??

it will cost you the same to make a cast one as it would to make a steel one. BMC sells nice steel adaptor plates, check out his ad in the for sale section

 

uhm what?

u dont just buy pieces of cast iron, because it cant be joined well..

if you weld it the weld doesnt hold up very good.

 

correct me if i'm wrong..... but you cant weld mild steel to cast iron can you?? damnit.. screw it.. i'll just go w/ an adaptor...

thanks!

yeah i guess i'll just stick the the "adapter plate" method

next to find is a HX manifold... how do i identify it?? it has a "3" stamped on the 4th runner right?

HF not HX. just go find one from a CRX hf, EG cx,dx, or vx, or 89-91 civic. or look up HF manifold on ebay

 

yeah yeah i know it's hf.. sorry i was thinking of my damn wheels on my EF hatch.... sorry .. i;m not THAT ignorant.. i SWEAR!.. and am i mistaken or can i also use the manifold off of a Standard

Yup, the STD manis work fine.
