Any one interested in purchasing a turbo inlet manifold for their sohc ?? Let me know the more the cheaper o/k ????
An exhaust fabricator is going to make one up. So let me know here if anyone is interested. Group purchase and pass savings on..

Well isn't this interesting.

My questions:

How much?

I would be very interesting in getting one sent to me here in SA.

Just imagine a Fleet of EA to AU 6's with ford forums stickers blowing a hell of a lot of HSV's off the road. It will be KAOS!! Muhahaha!

EB2Fairmont · 05-15-2003, 18:27

Oh I forgot.......

Single or twin turbos?

Yes the idea of blowing HSV's (particularly GTS) off the road is good.

But the torque....sweet jesus the torque.....mmmmmmmm

Sorry just wiping the drool off my keyboard.

YEP... Definitely interested. Need to know some prices though?

V8RUMBLE · 05-16-2003, 04:33

What sort of price are looking at, say if 10 people put in firm orders?

Are we going to have to get a local exhaust shop to make up the rest of the system?

Are we going to have to get someone to re-map the ecu once the turbo is installed (I know the answers yes, I just thought I'd ask)?

Are we going to have to do any other changes to the engine itself (ie cam, change comp ratio, diff plugs, etc)?

There's many more questions to be asked, but this is just some off the top of my head.

I have asked around? I want reasonable firm interests then I;ll hit a couple up. I was talking to one turbo reco specialist, he said all you need is a J bend on original manifold with flange on that! He said would hardly be any different than custom one?? Though "asthetics" come to it.. Yes I was mainly looking into manifold to get some sort of kit started and some type of turbo that could be high flowed latter.As the yanks call jank yard turbo's [do a search?] I would say if boost is under 6/ 8 Lp there wouldn't need to be any adjustments to Trans/ eec etc Ideal for the guy who wants to get started himself.. Intercooler's etc can be fitted later.
Though it's funny how these things start !!!

Depens on turbo availabity etc..
