Default Turbo manifold Qs

Ok, I found a guy selling a 95 DSM turbo manifold with a Honda flange welded onto it so it will accept 14B turbos. He is selling for $105 shipped which I think is a great deal.

But I am worried about keeping my AC, which i want to do. Do you think this will work and i can still have my AC?

If this won't work, I think i will buy a DRAG manifold...what turbos will bolt on to a DRAG manifold?

BTW This is a 99 Si

Thanks,
kevin

Wow, I would like to see the pic of the manifold with the flange on it. The DSM turbo manifold sits out incredibly far, and I wouldnt doubt if it will hit the fans, or even radiator.

And I am about 90% sure that it will not support AC.

The drag manifolds will let you use T3 turbos.

What about an FMAX manifold? Some dude on HT is selling one for $200 OBO. Can a T3 bolt up to an FMAX manifold while still retaining AC?

Not sure if it will retain ac or not, but it should use a T3 flange off that manifold..

According to the FMAX website

"The FMAX turbo system, can be considered a true O.E. bolt-on requiring no hacking. Pieces mount to existing factory positions and maintains all options including A/C. With these kits, you no longer have to worry about 4-6 weeks of downtime to get a kit fabricated since a kit can be installed within 8-12 hours..."

So I think I should be ok! If I can talk to the guy down to $200 shipped I don't think that would be a bad idea!
