    FS: M42 turbo manifold

    Buttchug has moved on to bigger and better parts in search for more power. So, if you are looking for an DECENT solution that fits nice this is the answer.

    Stainless Steel
    All tig welded
    Ebay m50 top mount base -2 cylinders
    T25 flange

    The Pros:
    It works well.
    It fits properly. (hood will close) (no issues between shock tower and valve cover)
    I made 260 hp with it.
    Its a good starting point/solution for a turbo build.
    You can use a GT25 or a GT28. Both turbos will fit properly (provided they are clocked correctly ect)

    The Cons:
    Because of its design hp levels are limited.
    When I built it I used piping that was a little on the thin side.
    I caught a speed bump pretty good once, due to that and no flex pipe in my exhaust system a portion of the manifold cracked. It is fixed now (see pics)
    Its ugly because I had it wrapped up.

    Overall:

    Like I said before, this is a good starter piece. It has about 2k miles on it and it only failed me (cracked) when I bottomed out and over stressed my exhaust system.

    If you are looking for a mild 10 to 14 psi build this can work for you. I ran 17psi consistently daily driving and had no issues.

    AGAIN please be aware this is not something you can make 300 some odd hp with. It does not flow well enough and that is why I am selling it.

    IF you would like to see pictures of fitment in my engine bay please see my build thread link in my sig, there are several pictures there.

    $160 OBO shipped anywhere in the U.S. International shipping PM me for a quote.

    If I only hadn't gone down the high-comp NA path, this would be perfect for a DD build.
    You say "Where are your other two cylinders?"
    I say "Where's your other camshaft?"
