Would have to charge about 900 bucks as it is a lot of time involved but it is all port matched as you can see in the picture. But just remember there are the other costs , ie: new turbo , dumppipe you could probably still use factory intercooler but i have opted for a front mount.

isnt that a chinese mani?

No unless you no some where that does off the shelf manifolds for caldinas. That is a custom job .

This isn't a Chinese Honda one! Its a home made copy, and seeing as its going into his car, I'd say he put in the extra efford to make sure it wasn't cheap and nasty

you do the welding yourself? looks like one of those computerised welders did it,

Does seem a bit strange there is a twin entry turbo in the picture but one wastegate. Still nice job.

by **IH8TEC** » Wed Jul 26, 2006 9:27 pm

it's not so much there is only one wastegate, it's that the pipes are not matched, is it 1 and 4, 2 and 3

cylinders 1-4 should go into one port of that turbo and 2-3 into the other and they should not mix at all, then you can have 1 gate but will have to take a pipe off each port and join it up to 1 pipe with a splitter tounge all the way to the wastegate valve so when trying to spool up cylinders dont mix together. When those tounges blow out you will notice massive loss of spool up time.

People have put these turbos on rb25dets, evos etc without doing this mod and their conclusion was its a shit turbo cos it only made 10psi at 5000rpm lol.
