Very nice work, especially on the collectors. Its worth annealling it once its all welded up, it will releive the stresses in the tubing after welding and prevent cracks.

thanks guys. Fabricator said this was one of the most time consuming manifold ever to be made by him as there was space constraint, etc.

The turbo itself was braced to the block to avoid any cracks. CT1b/9 hybrid.

The last time I was running on the stock mani, it baked and cracked the hood paint. There was a noticeably GREAT improvement in power, and also the hood doesn't heat up so bad anymore.

I sent the mega manifold thread to the fab guys to try to get as close as one of those in the pictures.

Costed approximately 550-650quids to get it done. Couldn't get it polished though due to the weird angles.

where does the wast gate connect to the exhaust manifold?

where does the wast gate connect to the exhaust manifold?

where all the four runners meet up, just before the turbo flange
