Just want to hear your 2psi/2cents on this manifold. I'm in the market to get one for a JDM B18C typeR motor. Thanks.

You got any pics of the rest of that motor?

If I were building this super insane typr R motor, I would go for something a little more bling*bling. My next manifold will be a www.lovefab.com manifold. The Excalibur is the ----. 8)

Off topic question, but in that picture, see how the oil line is threaded right into the oil inlet on the turbo.. how do you do this? do all turbos (more specifically, t3's) have this inlet already threaded?

Re:This race turbo manifold !!
 
id think wihtout some sort of reinforcing collector around where the tubes meet at the turbo flange that thing will crack right quick.

hotrex 11-23-2003 12:53 PM

Re:This race turbo manifold !!
 
yeah t3 oil inlets are threaded

Looks good to me, what kinda wastegate is that HKS?


thermal 11-23-2003 07:13 PM

Re:This race turbo manifold !!
 
I see that too. I really cant see very well if there is any reinforcement. I want at least a bracket welded on that wastegate tube. Yeah I think it's an HKS wastegate. I cant really afford that ----. I emailed them to see if it comes with a standard Tial flange instead. I would do *bling bling* lovefab, but my fluidyne radiator extends all the way across the front frame of the car. Here's a pic:

This is why I have to get a manifold that will retain an A/C eventhough I have no A/C

Damn, that's a nice radiator.http://www.frioseg.cl/~anfrey/forums/drool.gif

Looks like it's going to limit your choices a bit. :-\ The price you have to pay.

Yep. I bought the car like that. I'm not complaining tho. I think I can still squeeze a snail in between ;D

Re:This race turbo manifold !!
 
where are you located. i got a guy does nice one off custom header stuff. really pretty. i dont have the luxury of my plugs being in the middle of the valve covers. mine are in between the exhaust ports. so every header i had done sucked until my new one !!!! anyways hopefully ill get up some pics of the cluster ----. but if you in the michigan area it can be done retians the a/c and that nice rad.

old accord?

Re:This race turbo manifold !!
 
It looks like you had some extra brackets mounted. Did you get that done yourself or did SFP did it for you?

sean88accord 11-27-2003 11:12 AM

Re:This race turbo manifold !!
 
actually that manifold was done by a place called PFE here in michigan. they do really high quality cutstom headers exhuast systems etc. if you need contact info just let me know.

thermal 11-27-2003 12:47 PM

Re:This race turbo manifold !!
 
How long have you had this manifold? How much boost? Any problems at all?

sean88accord 11-27-2003 05:27 PM

Re:This race turbo manifold !!
 
this header is new but other headers theyve done on cars ive tunned have been on for years with no trouble to note. as for cost ?? something liek this typically run 500-600 or so maybe more or less depends on how much of a MF it is to build etc.

anyways i was just letting you know that there are options out there if your so inclined.
