The real answer is. I said what the hell. I gotta make a manifold for the b16 when I swap it in, So I just went at it. Topmounts are the new logs.

Well it does look like a step up from the fencepost manifold from back in the day, lol.

Edit: OMG I just goodled "homeamdeturbo fencepost manifold" trying to find a picture of that thing, I love the discriptions I found about 50 threads on other random forums talking about it, other discriptions just said stuff like "looks worse than the shit you see on home made turbo dot com", haha. That piece of shit manifold is famous.

That piece of shit looks like you could have spent some time and made it look decent, but you didn't want your 40 to get warm while you worked.


In for ripper vids, dyno numbers, and no less than four HT threads hating on it.

Pickrel Bros. in dayton. They were 8 bucks a 90 and I bought like 5 foot of straight pipe.
