Carl,

People also report a much nicer sound and more throttle response. Do you get this?

I love a car that leaps off the line and goes from 60-80-100 in a jump.

T.

Dam thats a good result bigcarl :uh-huh:

T0nyGTSt I don't know if it was the bigger turbo or better cooler pipes and cooler(I did it all at once) but I noticed it revved quicker and has a meaty sound :uh-huh: but that could be the bigger exhaust housing?

I had to get both of my manifold faces faced coz it was a little out also.

It also mounted the turbo in the stock position sort of :freak: just the exhaust mounts had to be bent about 10mm towards the front coz it did'nt line up.

yea i saw the r31 gtsr manifold on a single turbo rb26 set up. was wondering how close the turbo would be to its original position. looked like you might be able to swing the compresser housing round and the dump would get close.

were could ya find one?

semi good news about the china mani's hey, they work but seems like ya end up spending extra on them patching them up. In the end it might be worth while getting a brand name. Im still not sure so ill wait and see the results, keep us posted guys!

and another question guy's what size turbos are you putting on these things. my turbo has a .6 ar compresser housing and to get it to fit onto the stock manifold i had to cut the heat sheld and angle grind the thrid runner to get it to fit. (as u can kind of see in my avtar)

If these china manifolds give more room with the design would be great.

with mine everything lined up perfect, im running hi flow stock turbo. we found that boost could also be turned up to 20psi with no pinging but one of my stock coil packs started to break down but once i rectify this will be making close to 240rwkws.

interesting results....

although i always have been under the impression that exhaust runners that are tuned length jobs always outperform the standard .. suppose that goes without saying really.

as u really want the gas to arrive at the turbo at the same time .. helping spool up and reponsiveness. basically?? if these so called "tuned length" aussie designs were tuned length the results would show .. obviously they dont know what there doing then??

might give one of these china manifolds a go eventually. anyways. pity they dont have them for external gated setups.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
