just picked up this R-Magic T4 divided mani from japan and was wondering what you guys thought of it??? I would like to purchase a GT35 for my single-T project next years.
what would be your choice of GT35???? BLAST AWAY.

thanks

(some pictures of the R-Magic unit----bad phone camera!!!)

 

a spec sells turbos, rx7store, turbo city is a great choice. there's also a good site called cheapturbos.com a 35r is gonna set you back about 1300+ for a new one

 

that is a sweet manifold

 

Looks like the HKS Mani

 

Agreed. HKS.

 

looks... but not

 

I was told it was a R-Magic not HKS. so I'll post the two side by side
for a comparison.

HKS---although they are very similar in construction, i noticed that the HKS flange on the(the engine side) has a notch on the plate between the two exhaust inlet. and rather then welding the mid section of the waste gate pipes to where the waste gate flange meets HKS has them mandrel bent. I guess I purchased a HKS indeed




R-magic-- the only stock photo i was able to find.--- the waste gate section is shorter on the R-Magic and also the angles are much more different.

 

FYI, I have an older HKS manifold too. I think they began adding the notch around 4-5 years ago.

 

^^^dude thanks for the picture. Right on!!! indeed i ended up with a HKS instead of R-Magic... NICE

 

PM me how much you paid just out of curiosity.
