1st gen turbo guys!!!
i know its hard to tell what kind it is, but there is this turbo mani for sale on CL and im looking to upgrade the mani on my 13B turbo.
i know the stock S4 T2 mani's had to be modified to get it to fit in the FB, but i was wondering if anyone recognized this mani and could tell me if it would fit with a T3T4 with no modification in my FB chassis.
robert?

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
ok, since i couldnt remember what was wrong about the fitment i figured i would take 10 minutes to see why i said no, LOL
i have a customers car currently at the shop, and he brought in the identical parts you have pictured, his car is an 88 though.. anyhoo, i grabbed the manifold, and started mocking it up on a motor too see how it would fit, to help out a forum an82). the turbo placement is pushed way foward only leaving approx. 3-4" of clearence from the turbo inlet to the radiator, making it impossible to use an air filter.. that was using a T4 turbo. next i installed the T3-T4 adapter thingy , thats where things got worse. it basically put the turbo right where the upper radiator hose needs to go. so dont even think about using a t3 turbo with this style manifold..
there thats a better explination than no
i do make really nice manifolds that fit real nice
