i have bought a gt2876r turbo to replace my t25 that came as part of the hks kit asi have been havin a few problems with it it has a t25 flange so i could just bolt is straight to my hks cast manifold which seems to be great but i fancy a bit more bling

could you post picture up of you turbo exhaust manifolds so i could get some ideas ideally want top mount but do like underslung turbos
ill even make one if i have too

pic, manufacturer and approx cost would be great


thanks lee

 

I so highly doubt a 2876 will fit on a hks manifold....well, it will fit, but not with the hood shut.

this will be your best example...top mounted 2876 :

I'd recommend this one!

You can purchase it at http://m-tuned.com/miata3.html

 

r these turbos good the only reason i say this as it doesnt have 'garrett' on it

thats what im sayin will it still be a good turbo even though it isnt from what i can see made my garrett

 

madmalc: please use punctuation, you're making my head hurt. thanks.

 

most likely yes, if the wheels are really the same.

 

Offset top mount. We'll see how well it works, I haven't even test fitted it yet. Good ole' weld-els.

 

That's what I'm going to be running with a GT2560 as soon as Tim's done making it.

 

heh...



That 2876 looks BIG!

 

tim: you know you want one.

by the way, are you working on V8s now?

 

I've always worked on V8's

 

SSA BP (mounted to an FE) - don't know if it's a ripoff or not, it's been around a long time. btw- Tim, can you copy a manifold with it in hand? more or less work than doing the work from ground zero?

 

I'll reply via PM to keep my hijack count low.

 

That manifold was a knock-off of the Original ETD Racing Miata Long Tube Turbo Manifold. I believe Y8S might have the ETD version on his car.

 

yep y8s manifold posted above is the real ETD version.

 

so SSA can't take credit for the #4 ewg mount?

 

I wonder if the SSA wg mount will actually let you mount a WG.



bare-ish manifold:

 

why dont you pick a bigger wasgate?
