R31Nismoid Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Hmm i can see why there is no point in putting manifolds with small low mounts.. happy sticking with stockers now! The size difference from that rear housing to the manifold gasket is huge!!!

DSTROY Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Looks the goods mate Im very interested to see what numbers you pull! I had a set of these put on my car 2 weeks ago and made 258rwkw on 14 psi and 316rwkw on 18psi on a Mainline dyno, but i used match ported standard manifolds and HKS split dumps and D-Jectro. Good luck and i hope all goes well Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/253317-just-a-few-pics-of-my-gt2860r-707160-5-turbo-swap/#findComment-4379889 Share on other sites More sharing options...

doo doo Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) Yep I got the tomeii stainless manifolds and port matched to the turbine, it's worth doing it on the standard manifolds too as it's a major restriction as stock. You get a much better spool response. Ported like in this pic. Gonna have to do a side by side soon Jase! Here's also the CES race dumps for those interested.....
