Anyone have pics of either the IAP manifold or Phat-KA manifold installed? I've emailed them both asking for other information but haven't heard anything from them.

I have my eye on these two and I'm going to make my IC piping but with the pictures they have on their website I can't get a real good view of where the turbo sits. The Phat-KA website has decent pictures but I would like a different angled picture.

When I install it I won't have access to a welder so I am going to have to piece the piping together with silicone hoses then after it runs I'll get the piping welded together.

I'll get more pics from Ivan for the Phat KA-T manifold.I'll post them on here and on the site when I receive them.

So you want pics of where the turbo actually sits in the car when on the mani? Just let me know what you need, I'll get some taken at the beginning of next week (I'm going out of town for the weekend, and not with the 240). I have the IAP mani.

Thanks!

One of the angles that I would like to see is how close is the turbo outlet (Do you call it that?) is to the frame.

In his pictures he has a 90º (maybe 80º) bend welded on the turbo. I would also like to see how much clearance would a pipe coming out of the turbo have to the AC? One of the AC lines has a fat piece attached to it and am wondering of it will be in the way.



Looking at this picture it doesn't look like the AC line will be a problem at all but I want to make sure.



That is one nice manifold.

Yeah, I'm mainly looking at where the turbo outlet is so I can get the right silicone hoses and (bent) pipes.

I have the GReddy intercooler kit for a 97 SR so the hotpipe before the intercooler will come out near the radiator.

I'm going to use a 90º hose that will come into the engine bay then from there I need to make a hot pipe to meet the turbo outlet. That's what I need to see is how the turbo outlet lines up to my 90º hose.

I just realized you have an S14 dont you...that'll change things a bit, but not too horribly. I ended up using a 2 1/4-2 1/2 reducing elbow off of my compressor outlet. I have an S13, but I'll still take some pictures anyway. You can still reference turbo position to the motor and valve cover.

Yep I have an S14. But like you said, S13 pictures should still help a lot especially for the IAP manifold. I think I got a good idea on the Phat-KA manifold.
