3tgte ~ High mount or low mount turbo *Pics Added of high mount built*

This one is not finished yet, but it is a simple manifold to build (I'm not looking for the extra few hp i can get if i build i better manifold).
I will use a Mitsu TD04 15T from a Saab 95 Aero.

Damn straight, that manifold will make less power than the stock one.

all design comment aside, that metal tubing your using looks a bit thin-is it standard exhaust piping?

T88 or T51R, aren't they both bigger than a 3tgte

LOL i think they are but he is looking at making over the 900hp on pump fuel at summernats,

all i know is that he brought 4 parts last week which cost him my yearly wages just about and is only looking at a 150hp gain,

building cars aint cheap but competing in dyno comps and shit i just dont want to go there

Not trying to be smart mate, but Jase is right, you might be better keeping the standard manifold. I use mild steel steam pipe with a 3.6mm wall thickness I think it was. I think what your trying to use may be a little thin.

johnny-whut are you putting the manifold on?

It's 2,5mm stainless steel, If I notise that it is to thin then i build me another one.
With the stock manifold the turbo will hit the steering gear. (LHD TA47).

BTW A friend of mine put out 730Hp from a Volvo B230 with the same disign of manifold, thats respect

[celicapain]

i wonder how much backpressure that manifold would make flowing 700hp!
