I was surprised by how cool this actually looks!!!

Would this fit in our hood?

Anyone have this?

 

a link would help

OOPS!!! must of not done that right

 

looks about right. i dunno if i would trust it. OBX is ok but they're not known for making the highest quality parts in the world so for a turbo i think i would probably pass on it.

 

looks nice!

 

saw it earlier today, it does look sexy.

 

I already got a turbo manifold, but this looks pretty sweet!!!

 

dannng

it may not be full race quality but its cheap enough to have a spare!

 

Are the pipes going up off the block, or down??? I would be concearned with clearance of the oem hood

 

Like the other guy said OBX is not known for making high quality parts. Just to give you a warning my friend put one of their turbo manifolds on his civic and the wastegate pipe and flange just snapped right off while he was doing about 70 on the interstate.

So yea...the price is nice, it looks good, but I personally dont think its worth the headache.

 

down , just look at the bolts

 

I would almost just throw it on for a show, if it lined up with the rest of my kit

 

it should at least last for a couple dyno runs to brag about =)

 

Or let people know it blew up....

 

That acually looks really nice, but OBX was or still is in a lawsuit With HOTSHOT for stealling their designs for headers and mnifolds.

and a crappy manifold made by OBX

Well this is in the auction so it is a little reasuring
Dyno tested and proven to increase horsepower
For T3 and T3/T4 Hybrid Turbos
Utilizes a 40mm external type Wastegate such as: OBX, Tial, Greddy, HKS
Gasket included
Lifetime warranty from manufacturer defects and cracking

 

just bc i say dyno tested doesn't mean it holds up past one dyno run.

 

The lifetime warrenty is key here. Its not like OBX is ever going to go out of business. So your $450 will last you a long @ss time.

 

Also I wanna see how well it fits with turbo bolted to it in the engine bay.

Also repost... :D

yeah it may last a while bc you'll replace it every month. personally once my turbo is in i don't really wanna screw with it. but thats just me.
