Looks great! Glad you decided to offer the big magnaflow 12579.

Will know next week if they perform as good as they look

Hey Kraken, are you still selling T25 manifolds? If so, is the price still the same at $290 shipped?

Gah. I want one of these with the big maggie setups. Maybe my car will see its third Kraken setup at some point!

I've just watched maxrpm's EFR Kraken low-mount video

... and was concerned about how short the oil return hose is, at 18.05 it looks to be ~60mm.
Is this enough to damp the vibration between the turbo and engine block or is this something that's not an issue given that the turbo is mounted to the engine block via the manifold?
I'm concerned this may strain the fittings and cause oil leaks.

I personally wouldn't be too concerned about that due to how ridged the turbo manifold and turbo are.

For me, I have the same Low Mount / EFR6258 combination and I drilled and tapped the pan with the engine in the car, more towards the front of the pan This required a longer hose. I used 90deg -10AN fitting at the pan and flange/barb connection at the turbo. I know EFR6258 is fairly sensitive to back pressure, but I have not had issues yet... (context: street car, 10psi, ~1000 miles driven on setup). If I had issues I would upsize the pan fitting to 1/2in NPT, it's currently 3/8.

Just another option to consider.

Gorgeous work!

No vband from elbow to dp?

Do you ship your products to Canada? If so please let me know of the shipping costs and availability for a T25 turbo manifold and downpipe for a 95 1.8L. Thank you very much!

You can order from https://kraken-mx5.eu/ where there is a shipping calculator. Looks like manifold and downpipe is $200 CAD for shipping to Toronto. Getting close to pulling the trigger myself.

I'm interested in buying, is there a T3 option?

Just received my T3 high mount BP1.8 manifold, its a beautiful thing to behold !
This is a really excellent casting, very smooth inside and out, and it should flow really well, and its cast from the good stuff too with generous wall thickness.
Very happy, having a beer right now to celebrate.
