Im about to spend another $1000 upgrading my turbo setup over the next 2 months.
Im getting a custom manifold from SF.
An external Tial wastegate.
And having my turbo ported and polished on both the compressor and exhaust sides.
When I get everything back Im going to route the wastegate dump tube out the drivers side sideskirt.
If I come up w/ a little more cash I might order the alc. injection while im at it.

Sounds nice....
I never knew you could port and polish an actual turbo, I've only head of it being done to the head and intake manifold. Guess it makes sence that you could do it. How much HP are you expecting to get? You're at what around 220-240whp right now?

He does have the Turbo Discounters kit. note the "Custom Manifold" part. Sounds good man, SF is great, I plan on buying more from them in the future. What would the AR be once you port your T25BB?

I thought he was running with the kit already? My question was what is wrong with the manifold he is running now?

You will have to have a new downpipe made with a blockoff plate for the internal wastegate. Or you can just wire the wastegate shut.
Thats what i did with my crx, excapt i didnt have an external wastegate

I just had no wastegate, and a lot of boost.
