1.6 cast log manifold back on eBay
#23
Does anyone recommend an alternative adapter? Of course I do not want to have to deal with the turbo touching the hood. I'm sure I could cancel my order before it ships. I don't plan on building this setup quickly anyways I really just bought this because it seemed like the best quality manifold for the price for my application.

Stupid question @Zachariah Saleh. Why not just run the T3 ebay turbo like everyone else? You can blow up the 1.6L just as quick.

You will need a custom downpipe even if you manage to get it all bolted together. You are better off watching the classifieds and trying to buy a used FM/Begi manifold and a downpipe, so that way you know your **** fits together and works.

Regarding @patsmx5 posts earlier in #20, I guess it's possible but you end up with the T25 studs really close to the sides. Most likely they'll break through. Not too mention needing a shitload of porting at the turbine inlet. See drawing...

I am pretty sure I saw a post by Keith years ago saying they also have their manifolds made in the US.
