    stock turbo exhaust manifold???

    And just for the record, the motor had been built for turbo use. It is .30 over, stage 1 port and polished head with a very mild cam with hardened valve seats. So the motor should handle just about anything short of me killing it with stupid noob mistakes like running with no wastegate... Lol

    stock turbo exhaust manifold???

    I was on the old header setup. Not right now tho. Only the stock manifold has no place for the waste gate... So, looks like I have to find either a turbo with built in wastegate or new manifold/header that will not fall apart on me. I've read about the boblog turbo headers... Ideas?

    Tach problem

    icm Thank you guys this helped me out too. The dual coil pack doesn't change how the motor runs at all. So the second coil pack is mostly for emissions purposes only correct?

    stock turbo exhaust manifold???

    I have bought and repaired after market headers as they do not hold up. I was advised that the stock exhaust turbo manifolds hold up better. I have two now and now need some help with parts for the bypass valve. I a have attached a photo of the manifold and the area I am referring to is pointed...
