I was looking at this a while ago but the guy who was going to do it said he was worried about puttong it in the manifold because he couldnt get the angle he wanted it on and was worried about the exhaust going straight past it and it having problems controling boost.

6 Boost does manifolds.

Here is a quick phone pic of mine as promised.

I'm interested in getting something like this, what sort of coin are we talking?

Fordboy - that is my new setup. It is close to being finished and tuned.

You are probably looking at around $1200-1400 for the manifold - and do you want split pulse or not.

That is a 50ml turbosmart gate which is around $850, and then if you want the system ceramic coated (or something similar) you are looking at another couple of hundred. Also - then depends on your turbo selection, so that would be where you want to start and then supply the turbo to ETM or whoever and a custom set can be built for you.

Id allow $2-2.5K for a setup with good quality parts. It can be done cheaper though.

Plus the other $30k ++ for very strong engine, IC, plenum, plumbing, very big injectors, brakes, suspension, drivetrain, gearbox etc

If you are financially challenged I wouldn't recommend this path.

There are always extra costs that crop up, and that is before breakages.

Make sure you have a spare car, as your car can be off the road for quite a while.

Dave, there is what I'd call a sweet spot for mods and that is around the 350-380rwkw; go higher and your costs can increase considerably.

Brian - good call. I dont even care to think about the costs for the rest of the set-up - everything has had to be re-done, and only a few parts are really salvageable from the initial set-up. Gearbox and engine are big costs! Its a major snowball effect - and it hasnt even been tuned yet???

ill be mounting an external off a std manifold in the next few weeks, ill post some pics as its done.
