Has anyone thought of using these exhaust headers?, they are NA ones for the 6A13 but has anyone thought of changing them to turbo ones?.

They look nice. But I think for conversion it would involve a hell of a lot of work, besides the turbo fitting, Ithink the DOHC engine is wider at the top (wider heads) and the routing slightly different. Then the flange where it meets the cat (or decat!) is also of a different alignment. Probably too much to be worth it.

By the way, where did they come from, or are they a custom job

Could you tell we where you got them from? and what sort of price they are asking, cause iv got the N/A V6, and they might be worth a look. Cheers

Yeah thats where the are from RPW in Australia. It says they are for 6A13 2.5L DOHC 24V motor, but I dont know the price. T04Garrett do you know if their adjustable cam gears would work on the 2.5 engine?

to4garret, if you go back and forwards from aus and nz, is there any chance I could give you the money for a phenolic head gasket from RPW for a 6a13tt?

How did you convert your car to a single turbo, what did you do?

As far as I know he stuck the turbo (Mitsi TD04 I think) on the front bank and the header from the rear bank just comes round the engine and joins into the front banks headers I think.
