Re: noob to the whole FI
You can use a sink trap, but it gets very long due to the angle the M50 motor is canted over at. Easiest if you wanna play that game is to flip the stock cast manifolds over (symetrical bolt patterns FTMFW!) and make a Y pipe to feed the turbo.
That mani is also an SSAC sack-o-----(tm), and it will crack, depending on when you bought it (the later ones are actually pretty good - I've got one right here). It also sits the turbo hard up against the inner wing if you top mount it, you'll probably have to make a wedge piece to tip it over slightly or bottom mount it. Got no experience of that though sadly, as bottom mounts don't work over here due to the steering shaft going right through there :1
Oh, and it's easiest to chop a pipe into the collector; the whole manifold will need to be rewelded anyway and the flange planed flat because the come pre-warped to ----. If you don't, I will come find you and ---- fist your sister for being stupi enough to trust anything remotely crackie chan.
