ive read that thread stacks of times, that manifold just looks MASSIVE... is it really going to fit, even with slim-line thermo fans? im probably more used to looking unequal length runners(i think), like this
i was origionally thinking of buying one of these, and cutting some of the sections, then adding small lengths to make it line up with a KA24 flange, and also clear the front of the block etc. (i would have to get a turbo to check distances/lengths etc)
this is a SR20DET, around $190, plus a doughnut or 2.... shouldnt cost too much just lotsa customisation.....
Any comments? Good idea?
ANother idea i had was to mount the turbo down low in the engine bay, right on the end of the existing manifold , just bolt an adaptor flange to existing, then weld T2/T3 flange to adaptor.... its a bit of a shortcut , but i think the radiator is too close
Comments etc are welcome.
