Question for FC's running RE and single
I am wondering what exhaust manifold people are running, I tried HKS cast for FC but have fit issues. The FD manifolds with the wastegate on the top looks like it won't fit for sure.
I am looking at the HKS FD cast.

The HKS FC cast log type, the bottom flange hits my RE engine mount and the TD07 compressor housing goes into my frame rail. I know my clearance issues are partly caused by the mounts I'm using, I know they sit the block too low and to the passenger side. I was curious if the RE swap requires the use of an FD manifold or is an FC adequate ?

The FD units will typically run the turbo much closer to the LIM.
Usually, it does not work with the 13B-RE Cosmo engine.
With your turbo, it looks like you got a LOT of spacer over there, so it might fit.
What size turbine are you running with that T78?
Is it the 7cm^2?

I am not sure exactly I'd have to look its a pretty good size. The problem with this turbo is that its a 18A tiny compressor wheel huge compressor housing and after 6k rpm it stops making boost.
