Re: Cast turbo manifolds

I have a set of cast twin turbo manifolds that im probably not going to use.... may sell them. They have a t3 flange and are for on center turbos. Very similar to the banks manifolds.

I bounce back and forth about keeping them, but I just dont think im going to use them. They would be perfect for up to around 900ish hp, but above that you will have trouble finding turbos that will work.

Back before that company went under or whatever I wanted to buy a set of those knock off manifolds. I'm concerned though about hood clearance. Looks like they mount the turbos quite high, especially the drivers side.

Im not sure, but they look to place the turbos in the same location as the banks manifolds. Which have been on my car with a stock hood and t04b turbos in the past.
