Default Other Than Honda Turbo Manifolds...

Short and sweet, does anyone at all, want to or willing or even consider making a turbo manifold for a 97 Dodge Neon ACR with a R/T DOHC engine. It's my boys brother asking me and I promised I'd ask and see if anyone DID have the head flanges or new the set-up or what not. Thanks. Fuel managment is my only real concern, since I rock Uber and don't know much on the FMU styles and non-Honda set-ups. Thanks guys.

You should be able to swap a turbo with manifold(they are cast as one piece) from a SRT-4 Neon. You can get one from www.srtforums.com or www.socalsrt.com from the guys upgrading to the stage two setups with larger units.

Doesn't Hahn racecraft or whatever make turbo manifolds etc for Neons?My local tuner/dyno guy has a Neon[98] he's building.He is using a Hahn manifold,super special 20G turbo,JE pistons,Crower rods,direct port NOS and is running a Autronic SM4 to control it.Claims it will be minimum 500whp goal is 600whp and high 10's I didn't realize but Neons actually have quite a bit of potential.You could also use a SAFC or something like a Split Second to control fuel as they are both fairly affordable solutions for management.

Look at this-

You the man! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I still need to look at, well I'll make him do it unless I get paid, at the rest of the fuel management. I don't feel like asking stupid n00b questions. Yes, Rawr, I said the same thing, but it looked if you offset it and had the right angle on the turbo flange it'd be no problem. Pete's is in the rear of the bay, too. Thanks alot 90DX. CCA, I'll look around, unless your sure the srt-4 Neon manifold will fit.

I just finised an up side down manifold for a 97 dodge neon the other day. its like a ram horn but up side down. So the turbo will sit on top behind the engine.

I have it sitting on a bench at the shop, ill take some pics.

Top mount? Isn't that the same thing, a ramhorn upside down? Not being cocky I'm just asking. Oh yea, your my hero. LOL.
