Thanks everyone. And we will see on the Ebay manifold, it looks very solid and I havnt heard stories from any 2jz owners. But I will be the first to let you guys know if it fails

actually i've heard real bad things about that manifold. isn't that from the company who's turbo compressor housing broke in half on the first day they ran the car?

either way i hope you have better luck with the manifold. for the price as long as it lasts you a little while i think it would have been worth the money. wouldn't be a great loss if it broke either, for the price that is.

must say once again...that is one lovely motor.

SSAC has a turbo kit for a honda... the turbo housing cracked in half... it was held together with epoxy.

...can't find the thread right now... but it's out there.


none the less, your setup looks sweet. Keep us posted on how that manifold holds up -- it could be a great alternative.
