The pipe by the exhaust housing is the whole problem. I will look closer when I get back in town tomorrow evening but I am sure there is no way around it without cutting up the manifold and its not mine.

Thanks for your input.

This most rare part of my car! I want 850awhp and A/C

Your motor mount is upside down

^^ Good eye, but I posted above that I caught that. Ha ha that wouldn't have worked very well.

EDIT... just checked and my edit about the mount last night didn't save for some reason.

 

[1slow93turbo]

As far as I can go without the exhaust manifold.

 

[BostinSwifty38]

looks liek yo uare using 2.5" upper pipe? If so, I have a JMF adaptor that allows a 1g tb to be bolted up to it, and I have a 1g nt tb with the ISC blocked off to trade ya...

Thanks to Jake M. I got the rear diff out of the Evil Eagle installed and had the driveshafts rebalanced and u-joints replaced with all Spicer parts.

Sweet ride!

Thank you!

I ordered the topmount manifold today so look forward to some updates in a week or two.

Well made a little more progress today. Got the cold side 3" intercooler piping done except I want to clean the pipe up a little.

 

[BostinSwifty38]

What coupler did you use for the upper part to the tb? jsut a straight 3" and stretch it for the tb?

I really like this build, great job! keep up the great work man!

Thanks Jake, I cannot wait for some low 9's!!

 

[rad_dsm]

What size battery are you running there?

 

[1slow93turbo]

The smaller honda. I thinks it's a 51R series... I think?

 

[andy4g63]

Good work, man !!! Glad, that you were able to prove that even 1G full interior car can run 9's with AC and everything...

A lot of people thought, that was EVO territory only... Besides the fact, that you are 3300 lbs. , your time and MPH is really good for that weight and HP figure...

Good luck.

Did you think about turning the turbo around? It might make it easier to run the downpipe since the altenator is going to be in the stock location. I know the late Wess Hess manifold was like that.

 

[1slow93turbo]

It wouldn't turn around since the #2 is close to the exhaust housing. Also the flange is tilted very far in toward the tubes. Trust me as I said before if I could make it work for the price difference of a new manifold, I would keep it.
