Turbo Header Fab
-
nice, is that for the dsm?
-
Its actually not for anything. I just used some flanges i had laying around. If it were to go on any car it owuld have to be a 1.6L miata using a Mitsu turbine. I didn't build it off the car though as i wasn't planning on using it so i doubt it'd even fit a miata. I believe miata would have to have a top mount due to the steering shaft coming down that side would interfere. But anyways just messin around playing w/ designs. I should hopefully have some stainless flanges this week so i can build some pretty headers :-). I know i need to do 2 for a 1G DSM, gonna do for for my civic, and then we need to design on a setup for Kevins car once the motor is rotated 90 degrees.

build one for a sti and stash for for about 23k more miles

You should try and make one for a 3/S...a better designed tdo4 and a tdo5 flange...large market with deep pockets out there, the few places that do them have a waiting list out the door.

Looks really good. Nice beads. Always wondered how ya weld around were they come together @ bottom.

Bring your car and some cash for a TT setup and i'll start workin on some :-).You can use it for a test pilot..but I am not in the market for a larger header and even larger turbo setup right now. There are enough things wrong with it the way it is.....

But yeah i could use your car as a test pilot if you wanted to do that, you just gotta take everything apart and put it back together, haha. Not really in the mood to tear a stealth apart right now.

so how about a TT setup on a 4.6L V8 Tbird. You could officially be the first to put a TT setup on these cars....but hmmm...
if you could throw together a well priced intake tube for these cars, would probably sell pretty goodI'd have to see the intake setup to say if i could or couldn't but i dont see why not.

oh it's pretty simple really, just a 3" or 3.5" tube, about a 60* bend to the pass side and maybe 10* down after you get over the fuel rails. Only thing that could be an issue is going over the fuel rails (solution tried before was cutting a slice out () [<-something along that shape] and flattening it out and welding it back together.)
...and then a couple bungsOnly guy that made a decent reasonably priced piece quit making them now (just found this out looking for a pic)...

(may not look like much, but what it's replacing is HORRIBLE)It's something I'll have to talk to you about sometime. I wouldn't mind getting something put together for myself and I wouldn't be suprised one bit if you could move a fair number of these to other guys (if it's something you'd be interested in putting out a few of).

Doesn't appear to be anything to complicated but like you said there probably some stuff i cant see in the pics that have to be worked around. But yeah im always up for doing something new.

(unless we get a particularly nice stretch of weather sometime this winter that I feel like bringing the car out in)
