Hey Paul is it possible this manifold style can be built to fit the greddy kit? I want it without the vband and wastegate flange so it can fit my greddy 18g turbo...looking for that nasty spiral design so people can throw me that ooooooooh face.....

Plus when u run adapter this changes were the downpipe would be since it would make turbo lower!

I sent the gentleman an email about the GR manifold swap.

It's not possible to easily keep the same turbocharger, but it is to upgrade. He can run a GT28RS on this manifold in v-band configuration. Still the same, if not better throttle response and have more power potential.

Waiting for BDIS3 to chime in about the 28R I selected to be put on his tC.

You would need to have 1 adaption pipe and the dump will not fit.

So, is a built motor required to run these new alpha parts? Is it possible to run the these new parts with a GT30R and a stock motor on 10PSI?

No it is not.. however you're not going to get anywhere near the full potential of the setup without a built motor.

You don't need a built engine but it would be a good idea if you really want to push what it is capable of.
