Extreme Turbo Manifolds Or 6boost

[TiTAN]

how much do both of these manifolds retail for ?

both are around the $1100 mark for a standard T3 flanged manifold.

an advantage the ETM product has over the 6boost is that they are laser cut to suit both RB25 and RB26 stud pattern. which is handy if you wish to sell the setup later on.

I can't complain with my ETM set up only issue is it has a major boost spike. Goes from 15 to 24psi. Mine is plumbed off the housing not the manifold and the only thing anyone can tell me is that its where the gate hase been plumbed in

It will be coming off soon to go back and run a conventional off the manifold set up

[SimonR32]

What size gate is it?

Is the screamer pipe plumbed back into the exhaust?

[Weapon]

Its a tial 44mm and it was screamer and we dropped the screamer pipe off the gate completely to see if it was a restriction but it wasn't. Tried a Turbosmart 45mm gate with the same result. had the turbo inspected and all is well. Plumbed in new vac feed with larger vac line and still no boost control

Weapon, even if you change to a conventional style manifold setup you may still suffer from the same issue. Get whoever welded the wastegate outlet on to redo it properly. It looks to be coming off at 90 degrees to direction of flow.

Should be shaped more around towards the rocker cover so the exiting hole nearly lines up with the exhaust flow into the exhaust housing. As much as clearance will allow.

Like this...

^^^^ thats how i have been told it should have been welded in. My set up is as it came from ETM

[r33_racer]

Well I wouldnt think it would be too hard for him to cut it off and do it properly. Just a shame if its been coated already.

My old setup also did that spike with a TIAL 44mm, i was told the gate was to small and that was only a td06

[Weapon]

Yea i know i was getting told that until the guy tuning my car showed me 3 other GTR's in the shop that had just been tuned. 2 with T04z's and a then one with a GT3582 same as mine running 6 boost mani's with the gate off the manifold. All running tial 44's and the boost line on those were almost flat

[l0WRB]

where are u pulling vacum from for the wastegate?

[Weapon]

Its off the bottom nipple of the gate and the source is just off the comp housing

[l0WRB]

funny enough this is only going off my setup

i run a 50mm external gate setup from my gt3582r

i use to run a vacum line from the copy greddy inlet manifold, i then decided i wanted to shorten that vacum line and pickup vacum from the cooler pipe that comes off my comp housing so i got a nipple welded on, hooked up vacum so the line was now bout 25cms long instead of a mtr.. what do u know all i got was big boost creep upwards to 1.6-7bar.. put it back to inlet manifold vacum and havent had a problem since.. could be worth trying neway..

[Shane_954]

Ive got the same manifold with a 3582, with the gate off the collector but using a 48mm progate, no issues here. Plumbed back in next to the gearbox too.

Its getting boost pressure from the pipework just after the compressor.

[Weapon]

Its a bit hit and miss coz some people have no issues with my set up (similar setups) but others have had heaps it makes angry lol i wish cars were an exact science sometimes

[T04GTR]

does etm do a gt42 style? ie big turbo forward and angled and with 2x v44's???? rb25 in a 33.

[bigmikespec]

Thread revival... what is the best way to get in touch with someone from ETM?

[NYTSKY]

Speedfab in Smithfield is another option.

They did my last manifold and they did an awesome job.
