hello all,I just put my motor back in my car about 3 days ago and found out that my new turbo was too big for my old manifold. So I decided to go ahead and make a new one. I just started working on it tonite and its not quite finished yet but I think you should be able to get the idea. any feedback or questions on the design would be great. Take a look and tell me what you think. Sorry the pics are so large, but i dont have photoshop on this comp yet.

Its almost equal lenght. Once it is complete the runners for 2 and 3 will only be about 1/2 and inch shorter then 1 and 4. I might be able to fudge somethings and get it a little closer. What do you think about it being a bottom mount manifold?

i think it being bottom mount is pretty cool but so is top mount.

i would try as hard as you can to make it perfectly equal though. it will help very much. good job

more bottom mount love.

i wouldn't worry too much about the runners being the exact length. they look long enough so that half an inch probably wouldn't make any significant difference in performance.

it looks very good overall.
