Question Choosing a Turbo Manifold.... A little help please

Ok I just bought a Greddy T-8834D (ballbearing) for my 93FD. My previous single setup was a T04e, but that manifold cracked due to poor tuning and high egt's. Im looking for a strong manifold that is preferably tubular and will fit this monsterous turbo. Any suggestions???

I wish i could do a custom manifold, but i dont have the resources to get it done. Custom would be cool though since i run open wastegate i might be able to run 2 open wastegates.

But back to the original question does anybody have any clue what so ever.....

what do you mean you don't have the resources? rotaries are the cheapest motors to get custom exhaust manifolds for. you only need piping for 2 primaries and the flanges. you should look up some fabricators in your area and ask them for quotes. if you need it even cheaper just get mild steel and have it coated.

OK ill give that a shot and see what the pricing is. And obviously Greddy makes a manifold for their turbo but if you read the orginal post im pretty sure i said "tuberlar" not cast like a greddy.

Anybody else have any ideas???

the greddy manifolds for t-78 and 88 are tubular SS, havent seen a cast greddy manifold unless the td07 has one

but any t04 series manifold designed for a big turbo should work...south flordia performance might be able to help you

if not a t-78 manifold should work
