[bazeng]

is that a 6boost manifold steve?

 

[steve]

Yeah.

I highly recommend you avoid getting one .. the guy is a douche.

 

[JayRome]

ahahah LOL!

I should qualify .. the manifold is awesome, very high quality work, no problems with that part, I just had a bunch of problems with it and dealing with him. All in all, it took about three months to receive a working manifold when I was originally told it'd take a week.

The design could be improved. It sits the turbo too low and close to the gearbox mount in my opinion, and the runners extend out too far towards the radiator (as you can see in that photo !). The provision for the wastegate would be better on the driver side as there is far more room to play with - though using a tial gate rather than the huge turbofart I have would help.

Other than that, it's great - high quality, strong and very well made.

Kyle's actually revised his manifold design a bit at this time; mine gave up because of a dodgy weld someone else put in and the new one was sent out to me inside of a week and a half. It was different; shorter runners, heaps of clearance, only needed to trim the PS bolt a bit to get 5 mils of extra room for expansion.

Bloody car ran leaner everywhere on the map when it got fitted(wtf!?) and needed to be richened up by quite a degree.

 

[tenji]

which the old one will sit in mine shortly

 

[Sylent Nyte]

And the Trust gate. AND the short shifter. AND both cars will look pretty much identical. M8 come and join the black & white army LOL, there's tons of us now! :shock:

 

[runuts]

Well its been a long process, but the engine is now built, so this is a before pic, engine will be in, within the next two weeks, finally.

 

[GSRSOL]

LOL

i was waiting for someone to post a pic of an empty bay! That is damn clean! everything in there looks brand new!

I think I can see a speck of dust on the right just under the strut tower bar ...... JK

cant wait to see the end result
