NOT HAPPY.

Manifolds here. Piece of S*** doesn't line up on the first cylinder, need to change the holes abit.. Got annoyed with it so left it for today. It pushes on about half way but the holes aren't exactly in the right place and it jamms against the studs..

Looks like NO room to run a downpipe. Like WTF.. I can fit a piece of 90 degree 2.5" right at the back against the firewall and it has 2mm if that each side. Not happy atm haha.....

I'm gonna drop it off at an exhaust shop , tell the guy to make the downpipe and where I want the wastegate to sit hopefully he will fit the manifold and sort out where the wastegate can go and run the down pipe and finish the exhaust for me. GRRR!

That sucks

Not sure about black centres. Gold is a definite no! With that blue it looks wannabe Subaru WRC stylez

So far I prefer wheels as they are :)

Thanks for the put off hahaha. Yeah I like it but then I don't, Is it wrth the effort I as myself...

Anyways this project is nearly wrapped up.. Almost complete just gotta get a exhaust flange for the turbo and drop it off at the exhaust shop let him finish it up..

ALSO -If anyone knows where I can find some BPR8ES spark plugs I will love you long time!!!

p.s, I can't put my wastegate back together :P

Gotta wait for my old man to come home now lol. He's got the camera, too.

OK so I have pics!!

See sh*t fitment below lol.

Black centers FTW ;)

Looks like the manifold is jamming on the top studs which means it will be on a downwards angle making it rather close to your steering arm. I wouldnt start to panic until you have it sitting on the head properly John. Might be enough room to do what I did and make the downpipe loop around the steering arm ;)

Yeah thats a good point, The number 5 pipe on the manifold comes out and sits really close to the steering arm though. I think once it's on properly it will give me better room to have the 2.5" pipe run down between #6 pipe and the steering arm. Should be sweet I hope.

You can see on the gasket that came with it how off the holes are, too much to the left. <_<
