Default So...you want a "cheap" manifold and keep your a/c ? (Honda)

Check it out. I might be picking up a kit A little cuttin a little grindin and some welding and wha-lah. You have yourself an A/C compatable log manifold WITH an external WG for under 150 bucks!! Sure you could order tubing off of McMaster, Flanges from Kteller etc etc but this makes it all easy! Combined shipping on several items adds up when you do the final math. Looks like a nice deal to me plus you can place the flange in any spot, at any angle to suit your custom turbo project

nice to see a site with stuff all together like that for you, but the prices are a little steep. I got all that ---- for my manifold for $85 shipped.

You can get the parts for about half that price. Hell, you could get the parts for a stainless steel equal length for that price.

Would you care to show me where? I priced out the parts individualy and yes it is slightly cheaper but less convenient.

1.5" elbows x 3 (2 runners and 1 for external WG)@ $4.40/ea
2 "T" joints @ 11.50/ea
both from McMaster plus shipping (we will say 5 bucks)

D series manifold flange $20-30
T3 inlet flange $18
35/38mm WG flange $18

all from Kteller.com plus shipping $15
Still need to find a radius flange. You really don't need it but it makes fabricating and location much easier. I will guess 10-15 bucks shipped so lets add that up.

$137 total. If you can find these parts at half the price I would surely like to know the links
