1.8l turbo mani
Used turbo manifold with external waste gate and parts of a old turbo setup "free of charge" with your purchase. Shoot me your zip for shipping cost. Sorry no pics computer on the fritts and only have iPad but can post pics on Craigslist.

Not sure brand but the guy who ran this ran the ---- out of it and ended up causing some damage to his engine do to no management. So I picked this and some other goodies up off him. Other than some blueing of the material the mani seems stout and has no cracks I can see. Probably weights about 15lbs give or take a few.

Sorry, I didn't read the CL ad well. It looks like an "I love Taco Taco" manifold but I'm not sure. Sorry, but there's no way I'm paying $90 shipped for a Chinese manifold. I'd do $60 shipped but anything beyond that and I'll build my own. Again. I have no problem with that. Your call. If you pass I totally understand. If you want to pitch the turbo center section for packaging and weight, that's fine with me.

If the above deal falls through, I would be interested.

The reason I do not think it is an ebay special is because the piping is several pieces welded together instead of long single pre-bent piping. The collector is also different then ones I have seen on ebay. I just did a quick look and could not see any manifolds on ebay that looked like this one. I just think that manifold is a one off that someone made in their garage.

They don't sell em on ebay now, but I asked previous question because I specifically remember them being on ebay before (or a mirror replica of one of those).
Someone I talked to said turboXs made something like that for a while, but I could never get any real info on it.

It's an old SS Autochrome/Ebay manifold.
