i just finish my turbo manifold

I take 3 week to do that manifold, about 40 hour of works.

Looks good!!

I think anything you make yourself with that amount of fabrication is really sweet, good work man!.

looks nice...did u do a pressrized test on it?

Skunk#1 · 02-02-2004, 03:31 PM

what kind of pipe did you use, is it DOM, or just .40?

good to see ppl doin their own work. i wish i had the skill to do that.

I use schedule 40 nsp , its on natural gaz pipeline , black pipe
thank you

they also use that stuff as sprinkler lines in buildings, but that stuff has a higher nickle content?, i know its softer. i thought about building one, yours turned out real nice, i was going to make it out of DOM, because we use that for roll cages and i have a lot of scrap. keep us informed on the project, looks sweet. looks much stronger than the tubing (header pipe) that proturbo uses for there adapters.

I put my turbo on the manifold .

is that hole under the turbo for your waste gate? awsome $hit duder. you should get it ceramic coated, that would look pimp, not that it doesnt already.

biotek · 02-03-2004, 01:46 AM

That awsome.. cant wait to see it in

Is there a particular reason you chose a log manifold?
They are definatley not the most efficiant design for a turbo manifold.

Very nice work either way though!

Skunk#1 · 02-03-2004, 05:36 PM

Why would you have made it with individual tubes like headers? i think its a good design, looks like the diesel manifold. i would like to know if that hole is for the wastegate. later.
