H22a turbo manifold help

I bought a 1994 civic that has been dynod at 340whp. Has a youtube video to prove it. Anyway it has a turbod h22a. Supposedly I've been told that the manifold it has now, is too close or something and heat soaks the engine? The turbo is shot(ebay) so I thought it may be time to get a new manifold too? He said some of them may not work aswell cause they will crash into front rad support? What should I do here? Obviously this can't be only H swapped turbo civic.

post a pic of the hood popped. We can gauge it a bit better seeing what we have to "work with"

Heat soaking is just metal parts retaining heat and transferring that to the intake air. Hotter air = less performance (but better fuel economy). Biggest reason for the intercooler, since turbochargers generate a lot of fckin heat.

Re: H22a turbo manifold help

You’d be surprised at how rare they are. Unless it’s got a H2B conversion, the axles don’t work well and snap under load.

BoostedBoiz on YT has a boosted H EK which is similar. I think they have a custom manifold on theirs. You got any local fab shops?
