Ahh, I did not notice that. I will check on the flange I have at home that I used to build my original manifold and see how that looks.

Believe me I want to get these out the door to you guys to get some feedback on how people like them.



It will be 3-6 months before I start on the 1.6 setups. I have to get out all the current orders. Then finish my T2 setups for the 1.8. Once I get the 1.6 one made I will make sure I get in contact with you.
Would you be willing to throw just a 1.6 manifold together for me for a certain amount of moneys?

$10,000 and I will build you just a 1.6 manifold. Realistically no. I build things in set's. I have no desire to deviate from the few things I make. If you want just a manifold, or want to customize, go give Abe@Artech your money.

That's pretty fair for this market.

PS. What are you talking about with "T2" setups? Sorry, I may be a little delusional since I'm just going to bed.

$10,000 for a 1.6L manifold is a steal. Do it!

There is a T2 based setup in the works. No more details then that at this time, and no eta.

I had a feeling that's what you meant, but hadn't seen it mentioned anywhere.

I've got a cousin who just so happens to be a Nigerian prince. I'll have him wire you the money. I'll just need some information from you first...

Comes with grade8 studs and bolts for manifold to turbo. If you are planning on tracking the car then I recommend getting TSE Inconel studs. The setup does not include and oil lines or oil fittings. I am working on an oil line setup to sell along with the kit. I should be finalizing pricing sometime in the next week or two. It will be out before I ship the first setups.

If your flange/manifold design is anything like mine, it'll be pretty difficult to tap for m10 studs after any welding. Might wanna make this an option for your buyers.
