Nice to be back on the board and see everyone. I should hopefully have some pictures in about a month of the engine bay. Ran into a few problems, but finally got everything figured out.

What is the new release date on this manifold now?

Its still a PROTOTYPE so the final cost is not yet set in stone. I have contacted LoveFab on numerous occasions just to check the status of the manifold. Guy told me late summer it should be done :/

Yeah but they test the heck out of there stuff like run it on a dyno for hours and hours at different boost setting just a overall stress test to ensure the durability

Those are some badass manifolds, i was considering moving my turbo much further foward later on down the road.

Something along the lines of this...

This a guy from our local boards and somewhat of a KA-T legend.

Badass front fender exhaust exits!

NOTE: That Fender exhaust is sooooooo loud! I know of a few DSM's in my area running like that. Sounds like a freaking top fuel dragster!

I may be getting a manifold made soon like that one for my RB25, there is a guy locally that is gonna be looking at my car and seeing what he thinks he can do!

geez ive been looking into turbo manifolds all night as research and only came across a few that will work for our swaps. Not so many choices out there for us is there? I'm probably gonna wait to see LoveFab manifold before i make any decisions, full race is just too damn expensive to just buy without a 2nd thought. Im really excited about this one though, too bad its delayed a bit.

I e-mailed them yesterday with regard to putting out this illusive RB25DET manifold, but haven't heard any response yet. We'll see. If LoveFab isn't going to release theirs this winter, I'm going to have to decide between the peak performance and full-race. I know I know...apples to oranges.

Thanks captain obvious! LOL jk man. I think we're all well aware of the full-race manifolds and moreso the price. He was referring to LoveFab and if they'd ever produce an RB25 manifold to compete with full-race.

This is the email I got back from Lovefab when I asked them when we can expect a manifold:

Chad,

Once we pickup our gineau pig a manifold should be ready within the month. I'm projecting a pickup date of around two weeks from now.

The car is an S14 so that's all I'll guarantee fitment on.

If they only want 1,200 - 1,300 for that manifold, I bet they didn't lose a customer.
