Based on the alignment of the runners to the collector, I confirm hotrex made that manifold.

I was gonna say, the runners doing look very good. Hopefully they're better than hotrex quality though; i've seen that first person. :S

Sweet project man.

I thought Master Power turbos usually came with a 5 bolt exhaust...

Master makes about 60 different turbos with probably 10 different downpipe bolt patterns.

Well the runners will appear "misaligned" but there is no extra turbulence from our design. anytime you try and match two things with different O.D's, it will look misaligned somewhere. The key point is, the bigger o.d pipe is on the collector so none of the air is crashing. Just thought id clear that up so you can see that hotrex quality manifolds are not what leave our shop.
Cant wait to see it when its done Zex, keep up the good work.

That turbo is going to sit way low and your oil return will be fucked. Mock it up first.

Didn't realize that they were different ODs at first glance, I know your ---- is many levels above his ;)

it would be easier to see if you clocked your turbo to the correct position
