Default d16 manifold that keeps a/c and p/s ?

livin in south florida i realized i need to keep my a/c , so i'm lookin for a d16 manifold for a t3 .48/.60 that allows me to keep my power steering and a/c. Saw this manifold on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7976853075


it just doesn't look to me like it mounts the turbo any diffrently than other manifolds. What do you guys think.

I'll take any suggestions if anyone has any.

You will more than likly have to cut webbing out of the front side of the block so the compressor doesnt interfer, and the downpipe is going to be a super sharp bend so it doesnt hit the AC compressor, but ya, I've seen people use drag mani's with AC and PS.

That manifold, looks like a regular *** non AC manifold.... A real AC compatible manifold, possitions the turbo, as far away from the AC as possible.... like jeff said, if you use that manifold, your going to end up running a sharp bend, probably to 45 degree cuts to make a sharp 90 just to barely clear the AC compressor...

i wouldnt get it.
