Ok I just got my turbo manifold today in the mail. It appears on the flange to the block for I belive the rear rotor. There is a hole under the opening for the exhuast port. Looks like a pipe goin into the manifold ...

Can anyone tell me why it there??

 

That's the EGR pipe. You can either grind it off or track down a JDM manifold that doesn't have that pipe at all.

you mean this right?

 

Wences, is that you

I have a spare 1999-2002 Series 8 JDM manifold that doesn't have the EGR passage at all, PM me if interested in it

 

FYI, all the JDM manifolds don't have EGR (which is nice), not just the later manifolds.

U know man, When I was porting my turbos for non sequential i was wondering whether i should weld that hole shut. But i know that welding cast iron wouldn't last long so i am glad i didn't.

 

yea that the hole i was talking about..

i cant afford another manifold...

my asking is heres why... i am turboing my na 88 i found a sweet deal on the non seqt. twin and the manifold.. im like 85% sure it gunna bolt up. modded LIM to clear ACV and 5th and 6th ports. more things needed to be fabed up.

 

...so you're trying to install '93+ twins on a NA 2nd-gen?

 

..... and you can't afford another manifold?

Btw, that other 15% will get ya every time

 

Hahahha... yea if my na intakes won't work ima end up trying to make TII manifolds work...its real close haven't had a chance to bolt em up yet.

Work has been pretty crazy.

And I just bought this manifold I really don't wanna have to buy another one.. It came with 2 solid gaskets for the manifold. So it looks like it would block it off.
