some people who dont f**k around and accually desgin something unlike Q however the price is a bit steep

See I thought about designing my own using buttweld pipework and some laser cut flanges, but the solution came across as quite unrefined.

It's my ambition to get a decent set designed to fit Scooby TD04's (or better) like Gowf had / Steve-VR-4ish now owns, that allows you to keep aircon, then get those built in bulk for a group buy.

Scoobys are -13T Jason.

Made my previous post a little less specific to appease the vultures

[Adam.Findlay]

yeah if you so need i have the lazer cutter files for the head-manifold flanges.
few of us here in christchurch have made manifolds with butt weld pipe (steam pipe) all turned out pretty well

I use the TD04 from the scoobies on our Starlet turbos, they are a fantastic upgrade. We went from 0.7bar on std turbo producing 130bhp to 212bhp @1.0bar on tdo4 on stock internals aswell. I have also seen boys produce an adpapter plate that mounts onto the bottom of the std mani to allow the td04 on but it does drop the downpipe & exhaust a touch.

Got pictures?
I would pay $1500 for a set, seems a lot easier than doing it yourself =)

pictures of the lazer cut flanges or pictures of carls steam pipe manifolds?

[foxdie]

I think (hope) he means $1500 for the flanges and steam pipe assembled and ready to go, $1500 for 2 pieces of metal is daylight robbery!

And yes, photos of the whole lot please

Right chaps I don't know if this has been bought up or not?

You cannot keep aircon because there is no room to keep both radiator & AC rad, also if there is no AC pump then you either need to replace it with just a pulley or do away with it altogether.

Which intern will effect your power steering belt.

There could be another issue or 2 but I cant remember what Gowf (Gareth) has told me.

[jjayokocha]

Well can you not just rip out the ac rad but leave the pump in so the belt doesnt need changed or the other thing i do with the starlets is remove the ac pump completely & buy a uk starlet ps belt which is shorter and fits the other pulleys just fine.

How did Anders (Anderz) do it?!

How did Anders (Anderz) do it?!

He just welded a TD04 flange onto a stock set of manifolds. Although cheap, it's not a perfect solution, I expect there'd be slightly different power between each cylinder due to the exhaust-to-turbo distance between each cylinder is uneven.

And you till running this stock set up in your vr4????

Ashamedly, yes. I hope this will change soon.

Complete plz....

I just about to get mine nickle plated.

[Adam.Findlay]

carls ones are with taylor at the moment i think as he was doing the final welding on them. not as flash as your single turbo setup. i will update regularly with progress when i eventually desgin mine
