Shopping for a turbo manifold.

I've been looking online for a nice turbo manifold for my FC, but have been pretty unsuccesful. If someone could help point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it..

It's an S5 motor, and I'm going to be running a S362 bullseye turbo, with a Tial 44mm wastegate.

Thanks in advance.

That manifold looks perfect, but I have a few questions...

Is there a huge difference between a divided and an undivided manifold??

Also would I need the V-band downpipe flange if I'm getting my exhuast custom made?
(I'm not too sure exactly what this is if someone could explain it in idiot terms)

Also what size downpipe and exhaust should I be running with this combo?

Thanks again for the help.

i also make them pm me for details or post here if you like...

alot has to do with what your goals are in terms of hp/torque, also which turbo you decide to chose and if you want to run single or dual wastegates

dual wastegates, while expensive to get going, are well worth the money for many reasons

Divided provides better response. You will want to run at least a 3" downpipe. The bigger the better with the downpipe, even if the discharge on the turbo is only 3".

I got mine from gato performance. Many of the rotaries from puerto rico use his manifolds and each is custom made to your needs. I've put mine thru hell in the 1 1/2 years i've had it and it still looks new.

Jim actually did the port/swap job for my car and I was able to get in touch with him. Luckily he had one FC manifold made for a borg warner turbo that matched my wastegate size.

Thanks for all the tips everyone.. I'll make sure to post pictures when the turbo is installed.
