GOT my Alphawerks tC turbo manifold! update: 10/3 turbo pix
Like I said, I might as well try building my own tC urbo.
Here are some pix of my alphawerks turbo manifold. Looks tight! It's a start!
Turbo building to commence!
10-3-05 update: got my turbonetics t3/t04E Ballbearing turbo:
11-8-05 update: here are my parts list so far.... pix latr.
I am building my own turbo kit for the tC. Here are my current parts:
turbonetics t3/t04E stage III .48a/r Ball Bearing for quick spool
alphawerks turbo manifold
intercooler
aluminum intercooler piping and charge pipe
rc injectors 550
tial 38mm wastegate
tial BOV
oil fittings
AEM UEGO a/f meter
Greddy ultimate

I have Turbonetics, Garrett and HKS for turbos. I also have all the Tial BOV colors available for whatever color you choose. The AW manifold is meant for T3/T4s (go with a B housing) and for the 38mm Tial. Browse the site and PM me a list if theres a bunch of small parts you need, even if it isn't on the site. I can probably get it (like oil line kits).
Hopefully they did fix the problem for you. Also, link for site...

all things considered i am comfortable in saying that with some more dyno pulls on the semi-tubular design we could have made the same midrange increases

Tubular flow is always a plus, but for the HP the tC will be making for street/some track use, picking the manifold with the best WELD and best crack resistance is better, IMO. You can always crank up boost to take care of some boost drop through the system, such as through a cast manifold. But like I said earlier, street use won't be using too much boost where flow is a factor, so cast vs tubular won't be much difference. I bought this because it was the only one available, and no one else was selling their custom manifolds.
I will be getting a quote on the piping today....will update!
