what had to be modded to use on of these on a fc.

please dont flame the ebay mani it self..

im asking about clearance issues. with a t4 1.15 rear/ .70 front turbo bolted to it.

turbo hits LIM

The Griffin

The easiest way is to cut of the T4 flange and reweld it on more of and angle.That's what a few have done in the past and from looking at it ,the route I'm going with.You'll also need to machine all the flange surfaces since they come warped.the other issue is the wastegate holes aren't drilled correctly if you are using the HKS style gates it was intended for.cheers

Do you have the additional components that will support a full turbo upgrade?

What stand-alone EMS are you running?
You realize that the stock ECU (even if you're planning on an AFC) is not recommended?

What turbo are you getting?

What sized fuel injectors are you running?

What sized fuel pump are you running?

Do you have a custom adapter or downpipe to mate the new turbo position with your existing exhaust?

Do you have an FMIC?

thanks for your asking tho. noobs ask crap like im asking with no plans or idea to actually do any of it. Im taking my current setup off monday... most of it is sold already. Im going to start the build up asap. Im just trying to pick what mani to get.

can get a custom one made for 400 or so but its extra for it to be devided. this one is already devided and i remember people saying it can be done with mods. Im going to take a shot at it. im thinking that a racing beat 13b headder flange used as a spacer will give the clearance needed.

jaa

Okay, you got the big stuff out of the way...

Now, you need to take care of the oil supply and drain lines for the turbo.
If the turbo is also water cooled, that's two more hoses / lines you gotta worry about.

I assume this is the eBay intercooler?
If so, you'd need to take care of the piping.
The PITA part is the throttle body adapter - you getting the GReddy one or a custom made unit?

What about a BOV?

oil cooled. yea gonna work that out when i get it on and see how long they need to be. helped a buddy do it on his so i have a really good idea.

got the same piping kit from ebay another local buddy got. came with PLENTY of piping.. clamps and cuplers too. polished aluminum.. it worked much easier then i figured it would.
no ac or ps helps.

I was going to get the one HIGGI offers for 100 but i decided to use the 3" n/a TB elbow. Has been working just fine on his car... its nice to be able to have someone else test a setup before me. It would hit the oil filler neck but we cut it down and rewelded it. clears.. its close but it does fit. Tapped the TB elbow for the air temp sensor.

I got a RFL bov, it came with a steel and a aluminum flange to weld into place. I wanted a hks or greedy but budget came into play... i just needed something thats gonna flow the air.. not something fancy to make some special sound. The rfl is big enough to release the air fast.
