#30976, "Star Performance Turbo Manifold."




          

Man that turbo manifold really makes life hard. You can't tighten anything using socket tools just wrenchs. You can't even torqe them to the specs. Crazy.

whine, whine. emoji

I've installed three, and taken my own off multiple times. It gets easier. Take a 13mm and cut it in half. makes getting the bottom bolts much easier

Mitifto... why did you paint your exhaust blue? Or is that just major overspray?

You hate it as much as the rest of us Dino (and whine too). emoji Them crafty people at star sure aren't the brightest bunch of people when it comes to this manifold. <SARCASM>I sure love how everything just lines up perfect. And that one bolt to stud conversion that you have to use this nut that barely fits just makes me so happy.</SARCASM>

Do I sense some sarcasm about Star and their fine quality? I mean c'mon, they have the best fitting DP on the market.

Shit is all apart. Typical...

My exhaust just has mad overspray. Going to add a apex n1 catback system when I finish with the turbo. I will also have my ride done in like 8 months, maybe. Come check it out

Mine is a custom blue. Dark blue pearl with a pearl flame job running from the front down to the doors. Depending on the light the car changes color so my ride is one of a kind. Peace

I had no trouble putting on the manifold. When I put it on Daves car I didn't even take the turbo or wastegate off before I put it on his.
