ZPI had two versions of the log style mani. There second version was fabbed up by Full Race. They will have the necessary means for you to get a manifold to replace the old version if you so happen to have that one.

Makes no sense to go out and spend $5k+ on a whole turbo kit, just because you want a new manifold to go with the turbo you love most (16G). If Todd has a replacement, sweet. Just giving you the info on where you can get a replacement as well.

what could this do? i have heard putting a bigger comp wheel inside a small comp housing does nothing.

Anyone?Todd any info?

This was my plan as well. The 20G comp will produce a higher top end than the 16G comp. So, matching it with the 16G turbine side would produce a turbo with the same spool time as the 16G, but pump out the power and top end of the 20G.

It spells DEATH to challengers basically....

Just upgraded to a 1.5 it, but I've already had problems with the manifold leaking at the gasket with the stage 0. Can't wait to see this new product. Very interested in the upgrade package!

Bringing this thread back - I'd like to see if this alternate manifold is out there yet. Getting ready for summer...

Edit: just saw the other thread. Nevermind!

Not to step on todds toes, but maybe this link should be posted in this thread for those watching the thread but not keeping up on new topics...
