hey guys i'm looking for a CA18 tubular manifold and larger turbo of some sort with a factory bottom mount location (I think)

anyways...i never really looked up alot about bigger turbos or aftermarket manifolds before b/c the plan was to put the motor in stock...well we all know how that turned out :rolleyes. But anyways, I want to buy a better manifold that can accomodate a better turbo...I'm not neccisserily looking for some monster turbo, just something good and streetable...300whp max.

is there a turbo i can do this with on the stock mani? what manifolds are available and what should i be expecting to pay for them? does anyone have a used manifold or turbo they're looking to sell?

thanks in advance guys...oh and i've searched quite abit and read dozens of turbo and manifold threads, but nothing really answers my question about a good streetable turbo/manifold setup...you guys all want crazy horsepower (especially drumma and boost_boy:D)

p.s. i've been giving quite abit of thought to t28 bb turbos, will this get me 300 whp with supporting mods (fmic, downpipe, exhaust, dyno/ecu tune)? remember i want daily drivability with great streetability!

Yashio Factory makes one(like 1200 bucks), EVO-R makes one(cant find the link for it), or you could go custom. Mine's a custom one and eventhough its not on the engine yet it is damn gorgeous, lol.:D
