It may have already been posted, but I've looked and looked. I found nothing. Are there any manifolds off other cars such as the 6.5 Chevy turbo Diesel that would work for a Chevy 350? (I don't know if the 6.5 manifold fits, just using it as a reference.) Also, is there anyone that fabricates turbo manifolds for a reasonable price? Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks

 

Are you talking for single or twin applications? can you weld and fab stuff yourself? or have someone local do it?

What do you consider a REASONABLE price?

BBDS has headers that might be up your alley.
and im sure a few people here MIGHT make a set for the right price also.

 

I did have someone to fab it here, but they moved. I want a twin applicatiuon or a really strong single. I'm willing to lower the compression in the 7s, switch internal engine parts to forged, add some 76cc twisted wedge headers, and a hell of a TC. I don't want to spend more than $1,000 on the manifolds, twin turbos, intercoolers, Wastegate, and BOV.(Basically the whole setup) I know I can go to ebay to get the twin turbos for 500 or cheaper, the intercoolers, the BOV, the wastegate, the carb adapter, and silicone hoses. I really just need to see if I can just turn some headers upside down or get someone that can make the manifold.

 

It can be done on a budget but I dont see it getting done at $1000 budget.

not for manifolds, twin turbos, intercoolers, Wastegate, and BOV

here look at this link.

i don't see any way for a $1,000 to get everything you listed, even used.

and if your talking new, depending on how much horsepower your talking about, your looking at more like 5x that much.

 

Depending on what parts you want to run and the power level you're looking for, you can blow your whole budget on just turbos, just manifolds…

The only way you'll do it for under $1000 is if you can make almost all of it yourself. I can, and I've been collecting assorted random useful stuff for a while and I'll probably get the turbo, wastegate, and all the plumbing done for under $500 (I'm rather happy with that since that includes a rather large single, all stainless plumbing and a tial wastegate). Of course, I'm currently building the second setup since someone offered me $800 for the first crossover/manifold that I built for this combination. Though I'll probably end up spending close to your whole budget on engine management/fuel (well, maybe not… I snagged a really cheap inline pump and FMU, which should get me running, I've also accumulated enough injectors and other good stuff that that will cost me nothing if I want to go that route, my sticking point is ECM/tuning right now).

 

OK, here it is. I've found out of the box twin turbos (Garrett T4) for $450, wastegate for $55, silicone hoses for $25, and I got a MSD 6AL setup for free. Is there anyone out there that can fabricate a twin turbo exhaust manifold with the BOV in the $450-$550 range?

 

Here are turbo headers that I fabricate, all are 3/8" thick laser cut steel flanges and 1/8" thick steel pipes, all TIG welded.


Currently available single turbo headers for serpentine belt equiped cars with operating A/C and "V" belt equiped cars with operating A/C. for $575.00 each

Complete single turbo kits for "V" belt equiped cars available, complete single turbo kits for serpentine equiped cars available soon.

Twin turbo headers for $1200.00 per pair, non- A/C.(picture of the one complete passenger side turbo header, drivers side headers fabrication are progress)

Ceramic coating is optional

 

This is the pic of the turbo header for the serpentine belt equiped cars with A/C.

 

This is the pic of one of the passengers side turbo header for twin turbo application, drivers side turbo headers are being finished.
