Looking for something with 4 equal length runners, capability for an external wastegate, etc. Custom airbox is doable if runners go out to fender. ;-)

Thanks. This is for a friend.

Default TAP1 has a tubular header. Have you checked with them?

Default Good luck.

To make 500 hp you will need a very large turbo that will not sit in the same spot as the smaller turbo kits since the frame is in the way. My car is just about done and the goal is 500 hp. I should have pics of the full setup soon.

Default You cant talk to R4R about his custom equal length runner manifold.

The runners are pretty long though.

Default Lucas as in LucasGIAC.

He has a 3 legged equal length manifold. #2 runner cuts right into #3 runner right at the outlet of the head. Here is a picture of one of the manifolds from him with a external wastegate.

Default Why not just mount it in the wheelwell and run 14 inch wheels w/25 profile tires? ;-)

I'm going to bug you at Waterfest...will you be together by then?

Default Looks messy, but if it works... Is that what you have?

Are you using a KKK variant hybrid with a T04E cold side?
