Hi is this manifold a greddy manifold for the fd rx7 also there use to be a 4 bolt flange for the waste gate but it was cut off and a v band flange was welded on.

 

I guess what I am really worried about is the fact that I do not know if this is a fd manifold or fc manifold etc.
Thanks

 

I can't say whether it's a greddy, or for a FD/or FC.
But looking at the pictures I can see that it has been repaired, and had braces added. This would certainly scare me away from it.

Good manifolds are pricey, and for good reason. The designs have been tested to provide the advertised performance, use the best materials, and are constructed by real craftsmen. Imagine the headaches involved to set up a turbo with a particular manifold only to have it break on you then have to go through that whole setup again. Starts to make it look like those pricey manifolds are worth it...

 

Seems to me to be an fc manifold. Don't fd turbo manifolds hug the block fairly tight? I thought I had read somewhere that between the strut towers was narrower than an fc and that's why even the intake manifold hugs the block more than on a t2.

 

Well that is what I was thinking as well it looks like it would stick out to much the guy that is selling it says its for an fd.
Thanks

 

Doesn't look like a Greddy to me. The welds look pretty poor and like mentioned above, someone added some braces. The wastegate placement is horrible. They didn't even do a good job at it. I have my single turbo manifolds and kits on sale right now if you want a quality manifold.
