Bw366 on hks t04s manifold?
I have the cast hks t04s kit w a tial wg, wanting to move up to the bw366 and push for 550whp, the manifold is a t4 flange, but will the bw compressor interfere w the motor and mount heat shields?

Assuming this is for an FD there is another thread discussing this,"s366 fitment thread" One guy was able to fit it but it hit the frame rail/strut tower. I received a couple pms from guys who tried it and said it would not fit.

BW S366 and FD HKS cast manifold
Just wanted to share this info..

This combo works great on a first gen, plenty of clearance all around

So, assuming it hits the rail, did these guys say it fits and just touches the rail? Maybe the rail could be hammered in or cut? Or the turbo would clear if an extra t4 flange was added?

Do you really want to cut or hammered the rail, why not buy a manifold that fits right.

Because I like the fact that my manifold is cast and one solid piece.

I would also like to try the idea of a adding a flange. I'm down w/ getting a manifold as a last resort.

Isn't the manifold open volute and the turbo divided?

Did you modify anything or will you run as is?

Thanks man,
Yeah, GT35r was great but wanted to step my game up some.
Plan is to run it at 20+ psi

Manifold and turbo are both divided... I didn't have to modify anything, just bolts right on with plenty of clearance all around.
