I know the E is not as good for turboing as the DE. But I was figureing on getting an extra thick copper head gasket to raise the head up some lowering the compression to around 8:1 - 8.5:1. and only run around 5-7 psi on it with a t25 as I am looking for a quick spooling torquey engine.

I want one with a standard t3 flange, and it doesn't have to have a spot for external waste gate, but it would be cool to have one with a block off plate on it for future upgrades. All I want is the manifold itself, I am setting everything else up I don't want no $2000+ kit for what I can setup myself for less.

Of the 2 sites I had bookmarked that sold them 1 is no longer around and the other dicontinued the item and only makes dohc ones now.

also what is the stock flow for the KA24E injectors?

I said "still get them". The ones I found searching no longer offer them as described in my last post.

You can buy mine from me. Never used, just test fitted. It's a IAP equal lengh manifold, best one out for the E imo. Welds look great, couldn't get much better. Check in my for sale section on here for pics and price.

About 4-6 months of late '88-early '89 models are 9:1 the rest are 8.6:1 compression.

So no need to worry about the compression, the factory cast piston rings would be your concern though, but with good fuel control your safe their for awhile.

jgstools.com/turbo there is a do it yourself kit and a log manifold already welded up with external wastegate for $305.

http://www.import-autoperformance.com sells one for around 500$ equal length top mount with external wastegate.

I just recieved mine last Friday and the quality looks excellent.
