I have been thinking of getting a new manifold for my tC. I was thinking of the Megan Racing(made after the sound performance design). Ive never heard of one breaking on our cars. And, I know about the wastegate recirculation fitment issue with the downpipe, I plan to get it cut off and welded and run open dump.

My questions is are there anymore fairly affordable turbo manifold out there, that arent log manifolds and are equal lenth..?

Thanks Vinny..

I would be interested in seeing someone chime in with experience on the Megan Racing manifold - the manifold and downpipe looks pretty decent and can be had for a great price.

megan racing manifold.....if purchased from dezod has been remade to fit properly

GReddy_tC

what exactly is the matter with the fitment. Is it something with the manifold or the dp.. Im looking to buy it from the sponsors on here b/c they are soo much cheaper than dezod.. like $100

turbo toyotas basik mani and down pipe combo

stockturbo15

triple the cost of the megan setup

kungpaosamuraiii

Higher quality + made in America.

coryjames

there is a saying how does it go you get what you paid for yep thats it

stockturbo15

that doesnt apply in all cases.

Its just bent exhaust piping.. I would never pay $1200+ for a manifold+downpipe.

If the fitment is good on the megan why not get it? Im sure they will replace it if you manage to crack stainless steel.

The TT manifold+downpipe isnt going to make insane HP numbers over anything else . i cannot justify the cost

coryjames

tt manifolds are making more power then any other mani on the market and im sure the basik mani and downpipe isnt 1200 bucks

stockturbo15

Sorry $1150 + Shipping for a manifold and downpipe

TT Kits are not making crazy numbers compared to other kits. Maybe a few HP.. but not enough to spend 3x the money.

coryjames

thats not for the basik mani thats for the version 2.1 there is a difference and not crazy numbers but still power is power talk to todd im sure he can help you out with whatever you want

stockturbo15

I dont see a "basik" manifold.

Yes.. power is power when u have unlimited funds.

Now back to reality.

Option 1:
TT Manifold + Downpipe
$1200

Option 2
Megan Mani $235
Megan Downpipe $160
Tial 38mm Ex. Waste gate $220
NEW Garret T3/T4 Turbo $650
$1265 Total

come on man.. what would you do

stockturbo15

I like the TT stuff.. it looks like awesome stuff and I love how he supports the community.. but for people that are cost-conscience (sp?) TT stuff is not practical when putting together a custom kit.

coryjames

you have to ask for the basik us the pm function tell him what your looking for and he will take care of you and i would do

exactly what i did

version 2.1 mani with gt3076r and all the goodies you only live once cant take the money when you die lol

stockturbo15

if you can afford the 2.1 mani and a $1300 turbo then good for you.

You seem to have missed the point of the OP. He said "affordable"

I laid out an affordable kit setup. You laid out something with more than twice the cost.

coryjames

he could just do a tt log with a 2.5 downer and the tial wastegate and leave the wg open dump

stockturbo15

again.. the OP said he wanted equal length, and NOT log

Stockturbo15, are you even boosted?? Your profile says "N/A all day" which says to me that you arent boosted. Why take advice from a non turbo guy over advise from turbo cars about a car with a turbo??? Doesnt make much sense to me. Plus, I dont think too many turbo kits, other that TT kits, are making 300+ hp on less than 10lbs. I'm pretty sure Greddy's cant. Dezod? maybe. Plus he said quality too. Noone that has a TT cat would say a think negative about the kit or the mani. Maybe you dont want the best for your car. If thats the case so be it. Enjoy the cheap crap. More power to ya. If you want the best for your car then buy the best. Turbotoyota should be the only option right now for EL manis.

my SP manifold is cracked at the moment, even thin one at the pipe and exhaust flange.
