T5 tubular manifold

Here is a pic (not to good) of my new manifold

Oh more new toys! Where you get that made at?

Longlife in swansea, took 9 bloody weeks!!!! Equal flowing for best bhp

[After_Shock]

9 Weeks! Would have thought a cast one of some variety would have been best for the bhp you are aiming for.

Equal flowing for best bhp

I didnt think it was just for show!

so how much (ish) did it set you back? and do you think it's worth it??

(Just in case I ever manage to have enough money to venture down the same route as yourself!)

Well if anyone wanted one guess your looking at the £600 plus mark, I paid a bit less than that, Aftershock, dont think a volvo cast one would flow anymore than around 400bhp, so thats no good.

Could you not rotate the turbo around 90degrees so the intake route is practically straight or does the turbo not clear the top of the head? Could have been easier way of getting around the top engine mount!?!

[madness]

looks like spagetti junction mate!!!

sorry to hear about your trip to orkney . you should have said you had t5's to fix......

[After_Shock]

Lets hope it can take the heat! Where does it move the turbo to, up or down? Was quoted £500 for one a while back but didnt bother due to have to move everything.

[spesh]

Turbo sits on top of the block to the left, it is fine for the intake.

looks good. is it mild steel or stainless?

[spesh]

It is all stainless, 3 inch doqn pipe and 3 inch full exhaust system.
