Anything with a t3 flange. Just have to space it out to clear the compressor housing.

I know HKS has one, the 2350...or is it 2530??? I can't remember what the numbers are.

Anyway, HKS has that on, and maybe a couple others that bolt right up to the stock manifold.

Got a friend here that has one on his R32 Type-M with aftermarket cams, boost controller, FMIC, aluminium pipes, filter and turbo back exhaust and he hit around 370ish PS at .9bar of boost.

You didnt have to sell it. All you have to do is buy one or two T3 exhaust flanges, put extended studs in the oem manifold and put the flanges on then the turbo and there you go its spaced out enough to run a bigger turbo. its nice that the oem manifold is a twin scroll soi bought two twin scroll flanges so i can have functional twin scroll turbo!

Anything with a T3 can go on it. I have a SC6176e/GT40. You get around that size and you will need to add a spacer to it. I got a 1/2 spacer then got two T3 gaskets and have perfect clearance now. If you are going external gate, then take the manifold to a local welding/fabrication shop that can weld cast iron and have them weld a wastegate flange right behind the T3 flange on your stock manifold.

Nice to see a fellow big bro on the rb setup looks out i really appreciate i will try to post pics of my car one of these days so you guys get an i dea what im working wit. Also you think you can also post some pics of youre setup. by the way im trying to get ready because a neon srt-4 called me out and was trashing on my car and motor saying rb's are a bunch of crap and even then he even beat the crap out of a s14 wit a rb25det in the hangout so i started to panic because my car comes with less power but it all depends on the setup i guess. what do think? have raced a neon srt-4 before? can i run my factory ecu with a bigger turbo on my stock manifold?

Yeah you can run stock ecu just dont boost more then the factory boost (6-8 lbs)

Yeah this forum has saved my a** a couple of times! I dont have any pics my cast manifold is getting the wastegate flange welded on right now, i should have it back by wed of next week and i can post pics.About the srt4 good luck, its all on the driver and what he has done to his car too. All srt4 owners are d-bags! Well from what i have met around here... at the end of the day you still roll a neon!

What a small world it is.. If your talking about the white Srt4 with the stock rims painted black that's the guy im talking about we raced 4 times twice 1 night which i destroyed him then we raced again about 2 weeks later on the 2nd race we had i missed 3rd 2 times i know its my fault but i just think its funny how he recorded all the races and just posted on youtube the vids of him winning. Im located in Miami and i have a shop if you need any help your Rb shot me a email.
