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.

Does this kit come with the studs/bolts for turbo to mani? What about oil lines?

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.
