Looking To Upgrade My Turbo Manifold with a bottom mount replacement, Looking for your recommendations and why you recommend. My previous upgrade split in Two. So my faith in them is low.

Out of curiosity which one split in two? Why dont you go with the isis cast bottom mount? Cheap and reliable.

Look at the for sale forums or post in WTB. Im sure there is a factory manifold for sale.

Use a stock manifold and send it to Cody ace to have a waste gate flange welded to it. Had mine like that for 5-6years with no issues

Your the First ever to mention the Isis, Can I Ask? Do you have one? And How long have you had It?

blackmags91 · 04-02-2015, 12:33 PM

I like my Tomei Expreme un-equal length.. It micro-cracked at the collector after about 3-4 years of solid usage, but took it off welded it up and its been good for almost another 2 years so far.
my 2 cents..

EDIT: Why I recommend? Sounds awesome, nice bump in mid-range pwr/tq, fair price, Tomei quality, oem positioning

How much are you looking to spend?

DriftTheStrip · 04-02-2015, 07:01 PM

I have pretty much decided on either the Isis V3 Manifold or the Tomei Expreme, so my budget is in that 400 to 600 on the manifold alone. Any further input on these models

Extrude hone your stock one. Tomei is a replica of oem piece.

Wut?

blackmags91 · 04-03-2015, 09:52 AM

The only thing Tomei replicates is the factory positioning of the turbo and lines, which unless you are going big retarded top mount is a must-have in my opinion. Its so easy.

No personal experience with the ISIS one but for the price its probably ok. It comes without any sort of material finishing so if you do go that route I would get it coated in something to your liking, otherwise rust will happen sooner or later. Idk, I'd go Tomei

Or don't ship something extremely heavy twice and simply have it done by any half decent local welder.

Here ya go... This will solve all of your problems and has a lifetime warranty... Not the level of quality as the Full Race, but leaves turbo perfectly in the stock location... Going on a year later, mine is still going strong:
