ok, so everything was going great.. and i decided to buy a back up turbo that will make more power!!
i went with a BW Bullseye S366!! (i have seen a few cars make well over 800whp on them)
the problem now is that because of the AC compatable manifold.. the turbo was now hitting the block, Radiator and the slave cylinder.. not to mention shitty Downpipe clearance!!
the T67 bearly fit as -is.
so i started to look into getting another manifold.. i was thinking maybe TopMount!! ( they help shorten spool time on larger turbos)
i looked everwhereeeeeee, got a few good priced too!!
but 3-5 weeks to get it.. because most was on backorder!!!
...............................
i called up Roland @ MB Racing to get some hardware (-AN fittings, clamps , couplers, etc).. and while talking to him , i told him my plans and power goals.. i also mentioned what a shittt time i was having finding a manifold!!
he said he can make me one.. i had seen a few and they looked good!! ( but no real research on them, or gains or losses) so it was sort of a gamble on my part.
i asked how much and how fast ... (he gave me a greattt price, and said it would be made from scratch , custom for my car .. and would take 3-5 days)..
to make a long story short,, 7 days later it was delivered to my job in Manhattan . I had to check it in at security because they didn't know what kinda weapon it was, lmaoooo
few pix.. T3/T4 topmount manifold, with a free 40mm Tial gate flange!!
don't mind the random flip-flop!!
new 40mm Tial gate and dumptube
