You know who's got yout back when it comes to parts. I don't need a Turbo Mani but you know the other things I'm intrested in.

Yes, the manifold does look a hell of a lot better than a logstyle, and that is why a lot of people decide to make knock off's (no offense). But the manifold was not designed for looks, Full Race designed that style manifold to perform, which it also does a hell of a lot better than a log style manifold.

As far as all the questions, I was just trying to give you a little heads up with some of the problems that we ran into. Im glad to see that you seem to have most of them under control.

For the differences between your CB7 and the USDM CB7, front mount or otherwise. The differences would be good to consider and good for others to know if you plan on producing these.

s235, correct me if im wrong, but I believe that is a mild steel. Not the best material but should work. If it is a mild steel I would suggest coating it and bracing it from the turbo flange to the head flange.

Thanks for answering my questions and looking forward to an update.

The low front mount... no problems here



Radiator clearance.... seems to be a lot of space left......



!!! There does seem to be a problem w the alternator... ill relocate it (where the AC pump used to sit)

As for the S235; yes im planning to coat and brace it.


Progress: Made the collector,it's harder than it seems...

THE DAY HAS COME....

i finished the manni:









LINK TO THE PIXXXXXXX

it took a lot of time to get everything lined up correctly, but i guess i didn't do so badly concidering it's mah first manni

It's almost equal length (inner runners 1cm longer than the outer runners) but i bet it flows and looks better v/s a log slyle/or DSM manni :devil: )

If everything turns to work right i will be replacing this manni with a stainless one... i made this one out of reg. steel so i could weld it myself..

Time for a beer..... (the one in the pic )

[ace22]

Nice Job if you produce them in stainless let me know

[Dutchaccord]
