GReddy Manifold, Garrett GT Series Turbo?

Hello, when I bought my RX-7 I found a GReddy single turbo manifold in the back. From what I gather it was a T78 kit. Do any of the Garrett GT series turbos have the same bolt pattern as the GReddy manifold.

This is the only picture I have of it.

Does your manifold have the name Greddy on it anywhere else besides the wastegate flange?

I don't think so, but it's also TIG welded so I'm pretty sure it's GReddy. It also has EGT ports.

I love reted's avatars


as far as the manifolds........as long as it doesnt crack ill use it. I will never reweld a manifold i think it will weaken the structure of it. I hear good things about the ebay manifolds for the fd as long as you get strenghtened a lil more. I hear horrible things about the fc manifold. I hear they just take 2 cast moldings and weld the 2 right down the center.

just fyi I have a greddy manifold with a GT3540R T4 flange and it works well. The turbo has to be clocked a few degrees off from exactly what you would want though.
