hi there just a quick question just to see if it would work or it is possible.
Right there a guy that my friend knows that build manifold exhaust and all that extremely well and can do it to which ever specification what you want.
now he said he can make manifold, now sure a manifold where you can bolt which ever turbo onto it you want would be much better than the oem manifold and turbo in one peice method? obviously you would have to change the internals of the engine, but after a few bits and bobs could be a really nice turn out in power :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

No good for the standard k03 or k04 turbos as the manifold is part of the turbo, so you cant split them..
-
no meant have a manifold made so i can put what ever turbo i want on it :)
Joe.
-
In that case, go for it :happy2:
-
If he can weld to a good standard and produce something like the bsh work of art / eurojet tubular manifolds then go for it. What turbo you going for?
-
Could he knock one up for this?

haha, well the man in question of making the manifold makes full exhaust system for American cars all day long! i makes manifold back systems and makes them how he wants to sound with the best gains possible! the mans a genius!
i just need and old manifold for him to copy, then go for a nice Big turbo :evilgrin:
but surely if i change the turbo im going to have to change all the pistons and what not?
