Where can I get a manifold from for my 998 turbo project? I dont want to mod the bulk head

And also which turbo should I go with? Ive read T2 is old now and to look for a GT15 or GT17 are they still the ones to look out for for a 998?

Thanks

Contact Matty on here. He runs Fusion Fabrications that make manifolds.
The GT17 is considered to big for a road going 998, one of the smaller Gt15 Turbos would be a better option. Have a look at some of the threads discussing this and see what's recommended.

GT1548 is the better choice

Yep I can help out, just sent you a PM. 👍. I have done quite a few Gt17 manifolds now, and nearly every single one of them has been a different spec of turbo.

Hey Steve2016. I'm currently fitting a GT1549 to my 998cc with 8.0 compression ratio. Planning to run 8psi of boost initially and see how we get on.

Thanks
