thats nice. i dont even think one like that with an external wastegate would work on the 7thgen. it would go right into the radiator.

shouldnt be too hard to make one like that for internal. just dont cut out that part for the external wastegate

those mani's are so cool looking. Depending on the height it may hit the hood...there's some room before the radiator, I dont think it would hit that, but it might.

AC will get in the way.....Thats either a Lovefab or Fullrace manifold - they make some of the best ones out there!

Heh - that's how much the material ALONE would cost. The love-fab, full-race manifolds are STAINLESS STEEL - not mild steel. Add on the time of the welder and the price will double, maybe even triple.

Listen to Opto. He is right.

I have seen Ram Horn's come in Mild Steel and just tack-welded together for $450. Labor of welding is another $150-300. Then some people even go as far as Jet-coating.

a FAL fan and a stock radiator will work, i dont know about with the manifold that we are talkin about here, but just the fan enabled me to make things work

the only thing wrong with that great manifold is the heat i generates alot of heat and heat and welds dont mix so for extra support yoiu should use and thing that i forgot what it was calleed but it holds the turbo because if the welds loosen a heavy turbo is not good
