Best bolt up ka24de turbo options? Any good manifolds? Downpipes?
 
Just trying to figure out what GOOD ka-t options are out there. I have a good t3 turbo already, and was planning on going with the isis intercooler kit. Just trying to find a good manifold (preferably cast) that will top mount a t3 and clear the brake master. also, what about a down pipe?

JGS is a good cast mani that won't crack. Also they have a turbo elbow for top mount, that pairs up with an sr downpipe. Get that.

Thanks for the responses! Having a hard time deciding between KA-T and SR. I've swapped dozens of SRs before, and there's a place locally that sells complete swaps for around $1800.

Cost will be pretty similar between the 2.

My goal is a reliable 350rwhp track car. I think the SR would hold the 350hp on a track better than the KA. But when the KA breaks, parts are so cheap (whole motor for $200).

Any thoughts?

Also, KA-T parts seem sort of scarce. Not a big variety of "bolt on" turbo parts.

Having the KA will definitely be cheaper to maintain than the SR. SR would be easier to get to 350rwhp with a black top.. otherwise maybe the KA. Plus the KA has more low end torque.
