Ecotec Turbo Manifold
Wednesday, April 06, 2005 8:51 PM
Im sure this has been posted many times but dammit.. Im having a hard time finding a decent Manifold for a t3/t04e setup. Anyone do any custom welding / fabbing and can make me one? With the possibility of an external wastegate? Keep in mind I have a race ecotec engine almost fully built. I need a manifold that will not crack and be able to hold its own.

Been there done that. You are going to have to customize one. Buy an ecotec flange a really good one, either gm or rsm should be $75 dollars. And take it to the shop. Although you could buy a manifold from exploited or someone. I wouldn't do that though. I'm hearing too much bad stuff on here, so I opted for custom. You will find it extremely difficult to do a header, but a log will work. Make sure it is a good steel like stainless. Trust me, I know the problem all too well.I lost thousands. I was going to push back the fire wall to make my t3/t4 header fit. I finally gave up. It won't work on a auto unless the primaries are extremely small. It might on a manual. I don't know what you have. I just finally decided to do a log. I just wanted my turbo in. Also, make sure you get the turbo flange, too. I wish I could show you, but mine isn't finished yet. About 75% done.
