yea its bottom mount, would make for an easy turbo kit using sr FMIC, turbo elbow, downpipe, turbos

one kid i talk to has that manifold first with a stock sr t25 and now with a gt2871, doing great

yep ... i bought that mani ... it's CHEAP in price, but much better quality than ssautochrome's manifold. The ports are nice and smooth ... and the reason you can use sr stuff is because this manifold place the sr t25 or t28 in the same place as it would be on the sr. So you can use sr dump pipe, downpipe, and all the intake piping. It makes for a fairly inexpensive setup ... and it's good for about 200-210 hp with sr 370 injectors and stock SMIC. Don't listen to the critics ... 6 months ago people laughed at me when i dropped the idea of using a t25 on a ka, but it's a great setup. The turbo spools up fast and holds boost threwout the rpm range. GOOD LUCK!!

hint hint ... buy it now

you'll be fine if you run low boost ... i'd stay at around 7psi ... that's plenty with a t25 and stock side mount. I'm gonna be running a BB T28 pretty soon ... just needs to be rebuilt.
