The manifold will be for sale after its done being jigged. If anyone is interested you'll have to contact Lovefab after my car is done.

why not move the PS reservoir to the firewall by the clutch master, it might get cooked over there.

Thats just the stock position for it. If it needs to be moved, then it'll get moved. It might come out too, not real sure yet.

I see a blurry picture, but I'd put my money on it being 335.

Typically anything over about 355 they start measuring in inches, and they're slicks for drag cars.

Holy 335's!
Turbo's bigger than my face :ugh:

How much power are you expecting?

MI! Where at?

Sorry about the blurry pic...335 for now...prob put a 355 after the rear quarters are built....going for around 800hp at the tires.

Looks good. Why don't you take the fuse box and stick it under the dash while you are at it. It will clean up the engine bay 10x.

Put your bib on, the drool will not be controlleable. Pictures attached.

"LoveFab will be taking pre-orders for the RB25 manifolds for $1400.00 shipped anywhere in the lower 48 states ONLY until November 1st. After that, retail pricing starts at $1800.00. T3, T4, or TiAL large Vband housing turbos with the 44mm or 60mm TiAL wastegates. Please inquire for wastegate and turbo pricing, as well as downpipe and dumptube pricing/availability.

These manifolds take three days each to build so when combined with our other orders, these may take a few weeks to get through. Obviously first come first serve. Email [email protected] (http://by101fd.bay101.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/compose?curmbox=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001&a=80c7876677b4a60011963a8be3100fed0358a930e341ae37 07da1713ed496528&mailto=1&[email protected]&msg=B7EEBEDA-DA19-484D-AAB3-5EFFBEAC14E3&start=0&len=5301&src=&type=x) for more questions/concerns or call me at 231 499 3912.

Thanks for the interest and sorry it took 7 months to get this together!"

if you don't mind me asking, where did you get your fenders from?

The fenders and Hood are Masa Motorsports....and I don't recomend them, they fit like crap, and cost a lot of money....it's going to cost a lot more just to make them fit.

does the Downpipe being so close to the Brake Master concern you? I guess it could be heat wrapped...or do you expect the vented hood to displace most of the heat?

Those welds are perfect, maybe sell those conversion fenders and get origin ones? They have got to be better fitting than those.

That shit is a snug ass fit for that downpipe.

exhaust system maintenance must make you want to commit suicide..

What is the thickness of those runners? Are you going to brace the turbo, or just let it snap the manifold in half? Also are you going to use a flex pipe after the down pipe?

Looks sweet though.
