hey i am after makin my own manifolds i just need to know how and what material aint got the money to buy already made ones and i want my turbo over the clutch housing

[Ethel]

Cheapest / easiest option would be to use a standard cast manifold and make up a link pipe in stainless or mild steel tube. Keep the bore relatively small.

but the turbo i have got is from a renault 5 and how would i make the pipe to go from the headers to turbo

[Turbo Nick]

by welding some pipe together...


without sounding like an arsehole are you sure you're going to be able to make a manifold that will hold tegether if you can't think how to make a simple piece of pipe with a flange at either end and a flexi pipe in the middle to allow for expansion?

na i know how to make the pipe and the bends etc just not sure if it is just so easy to bolt from metro turbo manifold to pipe to turbo

forget it matey, just go and buy one or you'l blow yourself up......some how.
