they go hard
throw alot of mud around they pull u along instead of dig you in
i havnt got any pics of others i have done
steam pipe is just seamless hydrolic pipe its really tough
diesel manifolds are very simple they breath alot
i cruise at 100k boosting 3 psi

Hi I'm new to this forum.
I am looking to turbo my safari and found an interesting page on making turbo manifolds.
http://www.sdsefi.com/techheader.htm
Just a question?
Can I use an exhaust gasket as a template for making a manifold?

you can but i wouldnt garentee a fit first time
what it did was vice grip the manifold to the 10mm flat section and spray paint directly into the holes then drilled them out
bolt the gasket and the manifold on the draw around the gasket unblot it again and mark out the port holes
gas axe and die grind them out
easy as

Hmmm, I was sort of hoping I didn't have to unbolt the manifold until I was ready with the new setup. Oh well

About $75 for the steel and cutting. I will let you know when I pick it up.
