looks like if we were to mount this to our head...the wastegate flange would be pointed down. ive never seen this manifold before so i just wanted to hear your thoughts

are you sure thats for our car? theres 2 extra bolt holes on the upper part of the flange, im not sure if the other bolt holes would line up right, and it would place the turbo way to far to the left.

this is a repost and not longer than 3 days old. the flange is for our head but the outer bolts holes are not used therefore never left on the flange. neon might use them. If you look closely the flange is upside down.

I cant find the post i replied to yesterday but the real kicker here is the guy advertises to produce these yet doesnt appear to have ever look at the car he plans to install them on! How can you expect to make a manifold if you dont test fit the final piece? Some people are just so clueless........

Looks like the PT bolt battern, only upside down. What a fuckstick.

The primary pattern would actually work very well because of the sequence of exhaust pulses that terminate from our motor. Look at the lengths and their position. This would help scavenge the pulses and reduce tumbling. The problem is as it was said above that the flange is upside down regardless. That was clearly a fu*k up.

Ok so what if you turn the flange around? I think the wg would hit the hood, but iunno
edit: somebody needs to make a fucking high quality, tubular equal length mani for our fucking cars fucking soon. We should petition hahn or howell or somebody and tell them we all want one now!

I've already tried this, go to www.full-race.com go to forums under DSM and post support for "420a manifold needed"
The production of my manifold is suppose to start on 3/14...I can't post any price figures until the fabrication is done. I will keep you guys posted. I asked the contractor to produce the same full-race style (equal length, beautiful merge collector, etc..)

Thanks man,
I want to support the one that will be on my car..But there is nothing like more competition to drive the price down! We need more support from our vendors.

I called a place close to where I live called Cooks Headers in Long Island N.Y. They too quoted around $1200 to make a manifold and would need a test car to make measurements and such yada yada. He did say after finishing the blueprints and all , the price would drop to half for anyone else in the future mmm hmm.

it's a manifold made to put a larger turbo on the SRT-4 with the space between the firewall and the engine on the SRT-4 the turbo could sit on top of the manifold and doesn't touch anything
