OBX Turbo Mnaifold
 

well...

on the way back from florida yesterday, my exhaust manifold cracked...and i had to drive 700 miles with the worst exhaust leak ever.

The worst problem is that the manifold is cast and i cant repair it :(
If it was stainless at least i could reweld the peice.

...so here is what i found :)

OBX but worth a try!

so you cant reweld a manifold that has been casted? but yea i remember seeing this on ebay......it maybe OBX but that manifold looks hella good :P

there are ways of repatching cast, but none are worth it imo.

so I guess you will be switching over to external wastegate...have you picked up the wg yet or do u have one already?

Turbonetics evo 7psi spring.

so what turbo you gonna be using now?? Im assuming you have something up your sleeve now that your gonna be using a t3 footed manifold :lalala: :eyebrow:

how bad is the crack

it may be a T3 manifold, but they do make adapters...

never mind guys. i found that 3 of the 5 manifold bolts had come free (how??? I dont friggin now, they were all torqued and have been fine for the past 6 months)...

in other words the manifold is fine.

Anyways, im parting all my turbo ____ out for now. I put the car back to stock last night and im gunna start working on my buick.

buick... as in L67?

buick as in 3.8 tubro :)

ive got a riviera

nice, i use to have a l67 GP... those 3.8s are bullet proof.

yea, i had a 3.8 monte w/ an hptuners setup.

nice, talk about balls off the line ;) it was so hard making the change to the box, but with the GReddy sc on there it isnt as bad, but it will never feel like my GP did off the line.

U GET THEM PICS

bfurches, your taking off your turbo?? Why??

im working on my buick...and i also have quite the surprise for all you scion guys when my spare block is done for the egg :)

im gettin a spare block too Novermber 2 ....so we'll c who has the better surprise :P

dam you people... Im struggling to install my kit and you guys are talking about spare blocks, i wish i dont have a need for that, but it would be great to have a spare one to mess around with. BTW, bfurches i can only imagine the $hit your coming up with. I WANNA SEE A 200WHP 1NZ-FE!!

tip of the iceberg my friend :)
