Bmc manifold is here w/pics
 
Just got my bmc manifold yesterday. This thing is awesome. It is very well put together. I am very pleased with the craftmanship of the manifold.

Some pics.

ANother shot of the manifold you can see where its ported.

The only problem with this manifold is that it places the turbo right where my radiator is. I am going to have to get a half radiator, but I was gonna do that anyway.

Can't wait to get this baby mounted and feel some boost!

o.k. i got two things for you to do today,

1. press the little button on your key board on the left of the 'A' that says 'Caps Lock'.

2. tell '143' he's a ------- idiot and needs to stick a bmc manifold through his urethra.....

:o hahahaha

and 90zcrex1, when you say it hits the raditor do you mean the actual raditor or just radiator fan shroud(I assume you mean the actual raditor) is it any different with the compressor mounted pass. side? Thanks for any input

Why the ---- would there be a weld on a flange your friend got from him? ::) They are one solid piece. Your friend is a homo.

Yeah the manifold puts the turbo really far forward, I'm not sure if you mounted the other way, but then the downpipe wouldn't work.

I talked to bmc and he said he fit it on a newer civic, which has lots of room.

Re:Bmc manifold is here w/pics
 
I just went out and did some measuring. Even with the half radiator, the turbo is not going to fit, the smalles radiator I could find was 15" wide and that is still going to be a few inches into the turbo and downpipe. The downpipe is also pointed straight at the crossmember which will make is very hard to make a downpipe.

I'm going to have to get it modified or get a different manifold. And it looks so sweet too. Someone give bmc a crx to test fit on!

well crap i juss orderd one for a 90 civic w/ B16a I hope it fits???

Carnesd 04-02-2004 11:09 AM

Re:Bmc manifold is here w/pics
 
make sure you tell him it's for a 90 civic and I think he will be able to make it fit, really all he would have to do was make the flange angled more downward.

I want one of those to put in my pee pee.

Seriously though that manifold and DP elbow look damn nice!

How much did you pay altogether? I have an HF manifold right now but it doesn't look like it flows very well.

Teh one he made for me is way closer to the block. Almost tuching it. that looks way different than the one he made me. Same style but that one is way far out.
