Full Race Manifolds

[r3240sx]

second collector pic.

looks kinda average where u can see the pipes coming in overlap the actual collector pipe. paying that kinda money i'd want it to be 110% perfect

kyles collectors are better than that

You're right, I'm from the states, and Kyles manifolds are about half to one third the price of the Full race manifolds, even though they're only 2 states away from me.

My 6 boost collector looks much better than that, and I dont know why you'd want a stainless manifold anyway, the heat expansion characteristic is definately not ideal for a component like a turbo manifold that sees at much heat as it does. I think the only advantage of stainless is that they're prettier, and maybe lighter? I'm not sure about that though.

Looking at the bottom of the 3rd pic, there is a ledge from what i can see, is that from overlap of the collector to pipe or something?

f**k u roy

Actually, the full-race manifold is the heavyweight of the 2. From memory my sr 6Boost was 8kg's and my full-race mani was 10kg. The full-race does have a slightly thicker flange plate tho and provision for two gates. The full-race mani certainly does 'grow' towards my strut tower when hot.

mmm i dont see the point of spending so much money on a sub-standard manifold that still has to be modified before you can use it?

[Vanilla_Rice]

sub standard that manifold kicks ass, just look at the damn thing

[murrayis]

Heres the 6Boost Manifold kyle made for my rb20

[Angus Smart]

I've seen my mates at Westside make some pretty nice manifolds..

clearly its in the price you pay and the hours spent on making the piece.

garrett 4088r .95 rear

Definitely going to have to keep an ear out for results on that - I am very interested in seeing how one goes on a GTR

sorry to say but for that bloody price i'd want it to have stainless steel flanges, not f**king mild steal

nice design but still... 6boobs for the win!

hmmmm, 3 times the fun, 6boobs are good

garrett 4088r .95 rear

sounds good! i just made one of this style for anna (msnismo)

ps check this out..gt4088r vs s374

[Lithium]

That GT4088R vs S374 comparison is beyond suss, I've seen plots of the same car running S366 and GT4088R and the S366 was at best the same as the GT4088R but couldn't make the same power on boost. The Borg Warners are good turbos, but they aren't THAT good.

Cheers Den001, I look forward to hearing how it goes

[T04GTR]

lol. i was wondering when you would comment

[T04GTR]

ps. linky on said comparisons? i havent orderd mine yet.. damn 0.65c/usd...

I have looked at heaps of things around the place over time trying to get to the bottom of different setup options but I guess should make a habit of favouriting things so I can look back over it all. Here are a couple I know of, one shows a typical example of someone who sells Borg Warners trying in the face of fact to make out that a 1000hp Borg Warner can spool the same as a ~800hp Garrett when in fact there is a 1000rpm spool difference being called out:

And an S366 vs GT4088R comparison - for some reason this time the images aren't coming up for me, not sure if its because I am at work this time or not but either way you can tell the gist of results from the conversation:

yeah t4 flange rb26, gota get it modified for single 60mm gate, yes the ones from the us...

sell the 60mm and run twins.

[den001]

sell the 60mm and run twins.

whys that???
