JayzVr 106 Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Was thinking of using this manifold for my turbo conversion, has anyone else used it or am I better off using the log type manifold what a lot of other people use. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=390472993718&globalID=EBAY-GB Link to post Share on other sites

dave_424 48 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 It certainly looks very nice, from what I can read it is good and thick tube, not the cheap thin ones you usually see. Not sure if anyone has tried it though, like you say everyone seems to use cast logs and does good with them Link to post Share on other sites
ssaunders 199 Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Hi mate, great looking bit of kit but when you can get a log for a quarter of the price....S Link to post Share on other sites
JayzVr 106 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 I think I might just get the log type seen other people using them so can't be that bad Link to post Share on other sites
RBPE 198 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) Looks like the cheaper of the Wigart ones, all very high quality the SS321's are the best -- I have a trade account with them if you want the full options etc but their large custom vr based ones aren't the best fit on our rhd vehicles, mods are needed. If you are going cast, which are perfectly good and better in many respects for a daily driver, I would stick with either SPA Turbo or Rothe Motorsport/Mallon/Hansen ones.

RBPE 198 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 That's an SPA one, it's incredibly cheap if it is though, that's knock-off price unless it's from one of SPA's main US dealers 'cause SPA do us massive deals but you need to spend thousands of dollars on an order to get anywhere near those prices. If you post the link i'll tell you if it'll be a proper one or not. Link to post Share on other sites
RBPE 198 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 These are the wig ones too, it's mainly things like the mas cylinder differences and that to work around with the turbo placement with them. Next time we get someone wanting one for rhd I'll get me welder to do a rhd jig. http://wig-art.de/Turbokruemmer--Turbo-Rohrkruemmer--Stossaufladung--Twinscroll/VW/Turbo-Rohrkruemmer-VAG-VR6-2-8l---2-9l---Twinscroll-T4-Flansch-m--2x-Tial-MV-S-WG--Anschluss---Edelstahl.html I've put some bigger pics on the other thread to have a look at the spa mani if you want.http://www.vr6oc.com/forum/topic/47057-spa-turbo-manifolds-group-buy/ Link to post Share on other sites
