85490, Cracked manifold in Turbo 420a with big 16g, options.
Posted by gotboost2394, May-02-05 12:43 PM
I have a 2g n/t talon that has been turbo kitted. I bought the car with the turbo already put on. Now i have a crack in the turbo manifold. What are my options, i have seen some manifolds online but none similar to mine and none that have the 16g flange on them.
Is there something im missing or is custom work my only option, i have contacted two of my local shops, which are Garage Kwai who gave an estimate of $500 for a custom one but are backed up for at least 2 weeks and AMS who said $1000 and not doing manufacturing untill June.
It would be awesome if anyone has any recomendations for what to do in my situation, i still have to reach Hahn since they are about 40 minutes away but i am unsure if they can make a custom manifold for me.

if you dont have the money for a custom manifold or cant find an exact replacement for it, just weld the bitch back together :)

i would but the crack is pretty bad, so basically custom is my only choice. what would be a good price for a custom one?

You already have your answer. $500-1000+.
I don't care how bad its cracked, i bet it can be fixed for a fraction of the cost of a new manifold.
