Just finish my turbo manifold for my RHD car. with Holset HX35 12cm2 2.5 inch downpipe > 3 inch after steering linkage










Here my downpipe space


the Wastegate Hole

Looks nice(in an arty farty kinda way)

Looks a bit over complicated and time consuming though IMO

Wouldn't it have been much easier and quicker to make a log type manifold

Something like this



Would have given you some more room to play around with as well

Just a thought

Nice welds, are they TIG'd ?

That should flow much muuuuuch better than a log could.

Good work there dude

I've really got to brush up my welding for when I do my turbo conversion!

That looks like very nice craftsmanship there dude!

I'd be very proud of creating that!

Yes, I use TIG welder.

Excellent mate

Wish I had one tenth of your welding skills.

How much would you sell one of those for?

Maybe 270 pound Each not include shipping with custom turbo and wastegate flag for T3 T4 if you want. I Thailand the labour is very cheap.

Looks pritty smart bet it was a pain in the arse to get the torch in those tight sapces!

i can answer this 1, im guessing it was made like this because it will have a more even flow. the more even the length of the pipes are the better the flow to the turbo, so better faster spooling will occure.

Here update for today !!!


For the down pipe



My Intercooler pipe I have to cut oil line a little bit for the intercooler pipe because of the limited space and avoid 90 degree

The holes for the Exhaust temp and for wideband O2
