Do you happen to have a picture of the fitment? |

The downpipe comes close to the shelf, but it has never touched. Even with stock mounts on a drag strip. As with the heater core hose, it needs to be bent away.

I'm assuming based on all photos posted that this manifold DOES NOT work with stock power steering...

Sorry guys, had been reading the ms section for troubleshooting threads to get to know what the devil i'm about to get into....for nine hours......Haven't yet turboed my miata, just reading up a lot on here.
|
So looks like the t2 version has an outlet opening closer to a t3. Would it be worth porting the t25 turbine housing to match the manifold outlet better or would the benefit not be worth the effort?
|
no, just install your cheap ass turbo and cheap ass manifold and move on with life.

I would agree but i already have an SR20 T25. Which based on your other pictures seems to fit nicely with the FM downpipe. So the perfect situation would be to find one with a T2 flange.
Just bought bought from these guys a few weeks ago. For others who may be looking, I think they keep it at QTY 1 to make it seem like limited QTY are available. When I bought it went to 0 and the next day it was back at 1. Watched another thread and saw someone bought, the next day it went back up to 1. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

Hows the manifold holding up wanting to know because im probably gonna use this manifold for a street driven car 200whp~ I guess if its running on 400WHP cars surely it will last at least a couple of years be before it cracks

No problems to report. I bought a T3 version since I last posted as I went to a bigger turbo up front. It's working great. Can't beat it for the price.

how many miles do you reckon you've done / how long have you had it on?
|
The first one several thousand miles, and used anti-lag on it at least 200 times, probably more than that. The new one hasn't seen antilag yet (working on getting a trans that can take that power) and it's seen around 1,000 miles. I just got this setup running about a month or so ago.
It's going to have some crazy power going through it when I get an auto that will hold. As in swapping my ID1300's to ID2000's kind of power. :) |
It's a cheap part, but it works really well for the money. If you're really really worried, buy a 400 dollar FM mani and be done. These are 1/4 the price and not as high of quality. These are for folks who don't want to spend a ton of money and want decent results. If you want perfect/flawless/absolutely the best there are manifold that cost many times what this one does, go buy one of those.
|
its honestly a price - what you get factor for me like if it cracks meh but id love to get at least a year or so out of it so i feels like its served it purpose
|
Wondering if anyone has any updates on how their manifold is holding up.
