hey guys.
after doing away with the idea of getting an RX7 im going to go turbo on my ae92 4age. Does anyone know of a company that makes turbo manifolds for 4age's or should i get a custom one built at a pipe shop??

Yeah custom built is pretty much your only option.

Yep, I had to make mine, otherwise HKS is another option as part of the full turbo kit, probably mega $$$
At least with a custom one you can mount the turbo exactly where you want it. It will have to be fairly high to clear the oil filter, unless you get a remote filter kit.
Cheers

Stuff like this can be pretty pricey if you're not a DIY type person though - a decent turbo manifold from most workshops is probably gonna set you back a fair bit all the same!

the turbo can be of to the side of the oil filter and have no probs fitting without a relocation kit...(you just have to make your measurements correct b4 making it)..
here is the one i made, it works well..

I've been making a few manifolds of late - email me directly on ifitsuits@hotmail.com if you're still interested in having one made up. Clint

There is a place called nite parts in Auckland that do turbo manifolds for 4A-G's.
They usually have a few FWD "& RWD ones in stock.
I think they are $500NZ from memory.
I can get the Ph No. if you want.

Yep Shane,
I still make one or two, when time and the inclination prevails! Wouldn't make one for less than $500 though, they require alot of time, effort, and tooling! Email me directly on ifitsuits@hotmail.com, if you're interested, and maybe we can wheel and deal with those taillights you want as well?!
Currently making yet another 3TGTE to Garrett manifold, so am kept busy with that!
Clint!
