top speed manifold installed pics

Hello,

I got this brand new GT40R turbo for cheap and got a Top Speed T4 exhaust manifold with it for free

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mazda...51510004r28560

So far it fits pretty good but I would like to know if anyone is using it on a FD and has some installed pics. I just got done fbbing up the downpipe and the space for the exhast wastegate is pretty tight (going with a 50mm)


So if any ones has some pics of that area, feel free to post

Many thanks

If its the Top Speed company that I am thinking of, they make a lot of really cheap parts. A few of the things they make are halfway decent, but they are all copies. I wouldn't be surprised if the manifold cracks on you but hey, it was free.

can't argue with free. hopefully you get a few thousand miles out of it.

maybe you should have someone go over it with a welder

true, it was free and yes, that was the idea to get some exrtra welding on it by a friend (he's a photowelder) and maybe some reinforcement plates in certain areas.

I just fabbed the downpipe and the area where the wastegate is supposed to go seems 'tight' :-)
