Pics of what you're getting into with the EBAY manifolds
Not THAT bad, but it hits the LIM. .96 a/r. I think we're just going to mod the flange to turn outward a hair... Not really a big issue. Other than that, it fits great. I'm still hearing that aside from small fitment issues, this manifold holds up well. We'll see. 
Again, comments welcome.

The gauge next to the alternator is fuel pressure. Its mounted on the FPR. The seller of the manifold is SSAUTOCHROME on Ebay. Doesn't look like they have any up right now. Just remember, it's a TO4 flange, but a .96 will hit the LIM so you'll have to get it modded a bit. I'll put up pics as SOON as I get it finished.

looks like a nice setup. the only thing i would be concerened with is the heat...especially with it touching the manifold. im a big newbie, but it looks like the LIM would get pretty hot and affect your intake temps quite a bit. other than that the whole thing looks awesome!

Hope to have it at least put back together in a month. It takes forever when you never have time, if you know what I mean. I just do it a little at a time when I have some to spare.

Justin....... We can get a spacer made for the exhaust side for about 35-40$. This works perfect. You'll need a 1/2" spacer for the turbo you are going with. Anything bigger and you will need a 3/4" spacer.
