Whoa, yea, do some reading before you fork out that kinda money for a mani, you haven't bought it yet have you?

Re: 1st turbo 4me.
 

no, manifold has not been purchessed yet. there was like three that poped up when i typed in "f22 turbo" on ebay. i was just told that a cast mani would be the way to go. and i don't even know if the turbo's foot pattern is the same as the manifold bolt up. its not an acura that im turboing. but that sight had a lot of info that will be needed. >:D

Re: 1st turbo 4me.
 

What turbo did you purchase? Maybe you should look into using a DSM manifold :P

I was actually looking at that guys auctions...anybody ever buy from him? Quality of turbos?

Re: 1st turbo 4me.
 

I sure hope you swapped out the f22a based on your name, but anyways you can run a dsm mani with some modification I suggest a titanium bit and a high speed drill I'm almost done modding my'n. Since you already bought that turbo I guess your stuck with it so make an adapter plate. I'm going to be running a dsm mani, t25(too small),
dsm injectors, dsm bov, thats it for the dsm parts that will be on mine. Should be posting about a mn hmt meet soon for the install as soon as all parts come in the mail.

hate it when i'm so fuking new, i'm sorry but i dont understand much of the list, that you listed off on the last post. but i also just had a few "cadillac margarita" so my thoughts are a bit slow at the moment. please fill me in on a few more tips. have to make a two day run to Idaho for buisness. so i will be sure to check it when i get back. thanks for helping the newbie out. ::) :o

I could be mistaken, but ain't those the odd ball flange turbos?

Also sell your car and buy this.

Or make him an offer on his kit.

no, sinisterCRX posted the wrong "item number", the one i purchessed had only a simple discription, with no pic. i read all the "feed back" responces on the seller. he has a 100% positive with no nuetral feed back. but the number that sinisterCRX posted, may be similar to the one i purchessed. i'll post the info when she arives. 8)
