hm well like i said, he'll do custom manifolds if you contact him.. just not sure on the pricing.

so all of the k-series v6 motors have the same flange? that would be pretty good to have a k-series turbo manifold. but a thought comes to mind, since all of the cars with the k-series headers are different cars, do they allow the same areas of space and other things like that? like for example a klze probe might have a radiator catchcan in the way while the other car would have space for the turbo. idno it'd be interesting to see this project turn up.

Marsh, by the way, your car is looking way better than it use to. Ditch the tinted headlights though...oh and get some sort of rear apron, just a stock bumper doesnt flow well with your MS side skirts. Well done. Back to the subjec, I honestly dont know if the kit would work on every single car that could fit a k series engine in it, but im sure it could fit a few of them.

well tnx i recently got an e-spec front end w/o foglights which i still need to find and im currently looking for front/rear mud guards. i had the whole rear apron thing planned but i change plans for my car all the time. oh and i retinted the headlights to just 3 light coats of tint so its not as dark.. it was my orig plan for the headlights.

anyways back on subject, a nice link http://www.sdsefi.com/techheader.htm for you DIY guys who can't afford a custom mani... ive heard from a few junkyard turbo guys that their DIY manifolds have lasted a long time; given you use the right materials.
