I'm still building mine, but although the manifold will hold the turbo weight, no problem, I'm going to put a double spherical jointed rod down to the transfer case to stop any vibration breaking welds.

Don't use a fixed bracket. You need to allow for considerable expansion in at least two axis. Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."

ive got a similar setup waiting to go on, however mine was made by a pikey and dosent have the two pipes going to the turbo, so prob has lots of lag built in, im gona fix a flex bracket to the cold side to be safe as it will flex a lot with heat

I'm not being a cunt, but it really makes things hard to read, and lots of very experienced users of the forum will not bother to try and read it, hence you are missing out on useful advice. Just my advice, take it or leave it. |
