one good thing about the manifold, which i thought was a fault when i first got it is that the pipe to the wastegate actually continues on into the manifold to 'catch' the exhaust moving past it, so that should help.

in the beginning i wanted a hy-tech turbo street manifold. those things look like a perfect design to me. but the price was high, and they werent readily available. i would still love one though.. lol

im not sure what the lowest stable boost will be, but my b16 with gt3076r had wavy boost till about 12 psi from an 8psi spring. so we will just have to see with this guy :)

although on my break in tune it held boost dead flat on 8psi(you could have drawn it with a ruler) on low cam at 8psi. so high cam will probably be a whole other story though.

Another e85 user here.
That is a top manifold design and the best chance you will get at running gate spring pressure.
I run a RAM horn with a very shollow transition to a 60mm gate with 7psi spring. It holds 9psi on the spring.
You should be fine.

it looks like willowanks new insurance or regulations for test and tune events will let any car that came standard with drivers air bag and 4 wheel disc brakes to run down to 10.00 and no mph limit.

all that is required is the 3 point lap sash seat belt and the standard - helmet, long clothes and enclosed shoes.

so now i am not worried about being booted, so i guess i'll even be able to see what this thing can do on slicks!

the way things are going it looks like it should be together before the new year. but we will see.. i just want to drive my silver bullet again...

serious? i thought sub 12s require a 4 point harness?

any updates?

E85 here

hmmm lots of waiting..

since my mechanic quit his job i had to find somewhere else to do it. so im waiting for this guys to organise some space or free time to get it put together at a car shop. now i dont know what the hold up is, maybe the shop is just too full all the time or something. who knows.

looks like he will have to put it in at my house in my garage, which isnt ideal lol. but who to trust? oh well. i just hope it happens soon...

i really want to drive my car.. :(

lol
