my m50t project

the mani is one of the cheap bottom mount e36 manifolds.
so for it to work as a top mount the mani needs to be cut and turned a little bit.
heres a few photos of it.

Why not use it as a bottom mount? No space? I thought Matt said that the Spa manifold would work on a 24v e30.

the hx35 is a pretty big turbo and it is a very tight spot in the back.
this mani was only 130 shipped compared to 600 for the spa.

are you keeping your a/c with this??? looks good

[george graves]

Wow!

Nice job. I was looking into those manifolds and wandered if they would fit turned that way. What are going to use for Fuel management? I was under the impression that if you stay under 400hp you can run stock ecm with a new program. Any way great job so far.

Good luck putting it together. I have had one in my possession, that I have been trying to get goathumper to helpme put together, for the past month and a half. If you need to know where to put the ignition drivers, let me know. I've got a thread about on E30Tech under the engine management subforum. Biggest problem has been communication with Ryan, sucks that he is on deployment.
