Does anyone have any experience with this turbo manifold? Ive been looking for a top mount manifold for a t3/t4 turbo and cant seem to find any good ones. Can anyone shed some light on this manifold and its quality, it would be greatly appreciated

I'll chime in with what little bit I know. I think there is one thread on here with some info that a guy had installed it and liked it.

I think the CX-Racing one is close and a few people have tried it.

I'm willing to do something with one of these off-beat manifold setups when I get my car back up and running. Anyone want a big Ford truck so I can fund this project? lol

I would gibe it a shot, just double check the clearances on everything. There ate a few people who run them with success. I think supa is going to run a cxracing mani soon. Search online to see if anyone else has used them, it might give you a little more confidence to do so also :P

Search, few people used them on here. I have a obx t25 one. Havent driven with it yet but I like it all for the flange being warped

Thanks for the input guys I think I will be going with this manifold seeing as I cant find any other ones I like for less than 1,000... is there any way to reinforce this manifold to make sure it doesnt crack? Found one build using this manifold and downpipe but there was no review on howmit performed or fitment, etc...

i have the cx-racing top mount. awesome manifold for the money. thick runners. clean collector good clearance. nice welds. I decided to cut off the 38mm wastegate flange and welded on a 44mm vband for my tial wastegate. very nice for the money.

What do you mean you can't find any good top mounted manifolds?

Xcessice Manufacturing, DOC Race, and Blueridge Motorsports all make a good top mount t3/t4 top mount.

Unless you meant the "best of the cheap" then yeah that OBX one will be one of the better ones.

Ya I meant cheaper, I hate being broke haha but if I had the money I would do full race or the xcessive mani. What do you guys think of the dump and downpipe on this manifold
