quick megan manifold question - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

just curious to know if the stock turbo lines line up still when using a megan turbo manifold? Will still be using the stock t28 on an s14 sr but need to know if i have to get steel braided lines or not.

Thanks.

steelbraided is way easier to reinstall the turbo with, but u dont need it

The stock lines will work just fine. But as with any aftermarket bottom mount manifold though, you might have to do a small amount of bending by hand to get them to line up properly. Make sure to not use thread tape on the fittings!!! Lastly, be sure to use the support brackets that are included, or the manifold will crack.

Get the braided back.

My stock lines went out (cracked or split, I havent pulled the motor yet) this last weekend and left me stranded at the track.

Whhheee.
