used here anyone this manifolds as an T2 or T3 ❓
TlIf ivread he discription ,it will be an good stuff,but hold it in real too🤔❓
I will maybee use one t2 with gt2860/2871,
Or an t3 with gt3076 turbo,and highboost.
What do u think how much can this manifold handle❓
The most cheap iron welded manifolds broke ,after few hundreds of kilometers/miles..
I i bought this or is it ****?
I need a good and cheap t2 and t3 as an sidemount like this.
Thx guys

Yep. All custom exhaust. Its all mild steel and welded with hf welder so its ugly junk, but again just like the manifold, it gets the job done. 3" out turbo for about 12" merging to 3 1/2" to just in front of rear axle, then back to 3" to rear of car. Closest I have to a build thread is https://www.miataturbo.net/build-thr...exhaust-98666/ You can see various changes over the last couple years and progression in performance.

On mine I welded a 1" drop pipe with a new flange to rotate wastegate exit 90 degees to face rearward since I originally ran wastegate exhaust tied into downpipe, but now I run open wastegate pipe so I would have done as described above if running open wastegate originally.
My best advice I can give though is if this is your first time building a turbo system would be to go to harbor freight and pick up a cheap flux core welder, angle grinder with both grinding and metal cut off wheels and maybe a dremel tool. Since you are building from scratch you are going to find all kinds of things that will need to be cut, hammered, removed, butchered and welded as you progress with this project.. There will be a lot of things you will have to cope and figure out on your own as every custom project is different. The easy button is to buy a complete and fully engineered turbo system, but even then you will usually have to make some modifications to your car for fitment.

Not sure what wastgate you're running but if the exit pipe you have for it points straight down and has too wide a radius you will have to cut the flange off, make a pie cut to tighten the radius and angle more to rear off car rather than straight down and re-weld flange. May even have to heat and dent in the outer radius of pipe some as well. If you are using the style wastegate I think you are there is enough room if you have the exit facing block for a tight radius elbow facing rearward and down.
