thinking about using these to jump start my turbo manifolds. are they a good option to start with? obviously i would get a custom crossover made. just want some opinions

[CNCguy]

Those are not what you want to start with. They are designed primarily for RWD applications were there is limited space such as the MG conversion. You would be better to start with something else or make your own from scratch.

why does it saw fwd then? and why do they have another one for rwd? alright. i guess ill stick with my other idea.

Mine are black, so that is paint? (for the mgb)

The ones in that link look to me like they've been coated.

[CNCguy]

Both FWD & RWD engines are swapped into the MGs. The FWD engines are better performers but not everyone uses them. So we sell headers for both style engines. Could those be used on a FWD car? Probably but there are much better options.

Ben: The headers in the picture have the optional ceramic coating but your are painted with VHT high temp black.

And people think online video games aren't good for anything... My WPM went through the roof after starting them

Well what I was going to do was use those and then bend the pipe 90* and weld it together so that they meet below the throttle body for the turbo.

something like this

Ben will have generic turbo headers soon.

I may be going to pick up loner's car if it's worth it, but we know he ran 12's with my turbo design, Ben's cam/heads, Marc's (TCE) TB and phenolics etc.

If that happens, more will come to be, but for now, you want make the y-pipe the headers are ready to go. Contact WOT.

How long do you think?

I dont understand this statement. lol.

[ForcedFirebird]

Soon, as in there is enough serious interest and time allows. We are making the j body headers starting tomorrow.

The last statement meant that if you are willing to make/have made the y-pipe and downpipe, then those type of headers are a quick turn around. Turbo placement and y pipe and vary greatly from platform to platform and is much easier to do on the spot.

[eckoxl]

Alright. I think I might use them. I'm going to continue doing some research/thinking of other ways.

[kris gtwhat?]

i'd love the idea to have turbo manifolds ready to go. saves me a TON of time piecing my own together. even if it were just the front and rear manifolds, and just custom make the crossover. that would be the biggest variance between the different bodies j/l/n/etc. what kind of prices would we be looking at? im fully supportive for them, thats for sure
