If the pics are sized to 700x700 or smaller and relevant to the thread, you can have them hosted at DSMtuners by uploading them directly into your post.

DSMTuners will host a picture anyways. No matter what the size, but will size it down automatically now to 700 x whatever!

See (look down), That picture is 2080x1368, I uploaded it, DSMtuners's new setup sized it down automatically to 700x460, Thanks DSMTuners! Just click advanced when posting a reply, click the paper clip thing, and it should pop up a window that has a few browse buttons, and an upload button. And thats all you need.

WHere are these pics?? It's been a while and still nothing.

Slippi84 · 06-11-2008, 07:47 PM

I can vouch first hand that this manifold is underated and it does not take much to make this thing fit at all. Here are some less generic pictures for anone who cares.

To give an idea how long it is. STandard computer paper.

the flange for the turbo is on an angle not straight down that'show it avoids hitting the starter.

The runners and collector look half descent considering. No huge #### ups ike the Intake manifold.

The badge of shame lol j/k

Cool?

^^still not mounted on a car. Maybe once there are pics of it fitting and lasting for more than a couple months others will be interested

I don't even know if they still make these I had a hard time finding one. Your right about longevity that is an issue but we will find out soon enough because I'm def gonna be pushing it. Symtech has a manifold coming out soon which looks pretty bad ass kinda like a t3 version of the REV Hard manifold but better looking. Thing is I like tubular's better

Shadow98 · 06-12-2008, 05:03 PM

You can find them, but they're listed for a Neon... I def would like to see pics of it mounted with the turbo and all.

I'm ordering my turbo on weds but it will be a little while before I have install pics I still need some important parts. I can post install pics of the manifold though. I have to bust out the grinder but after seeing where to grind from the guy I bought it from it's easy.

My vented hood was letting water get on my header I have on there just as a place saver now and i already rusted from sitting for a little. Granted when you run the car it wouldn't be as bad but I didn't want this bad boy rusting so I did a little modifying

totaleclipse_05 · 06-21-2008, 10:58 AM

Did you paint that?

Yeah 3 coats of high temp resin 1500* resistant and then 3 coats of engine enamel clear coat 500* resistant. I did the same minus the clear coats to my valve cover and obx manifold

Slippi84 · 07-04-2008, 11:07 AM

Ok all the bs can go out the window now. While I have yet to put the turbo on you can see from the pics I coudl dam near put a gt42r in there(sarcaism). I don't even think I owuld have needed to mod the thermostat housing but I just got the oneoff the guy that I bought the manifold off of. Pretty much he took the eye lid that the bolt goes into down a little and took a little off the top of the bolt head. Anyway like you can see fits perfect. Keep in mind I have a visteon radiator with slim fan but I think it would fit without it but for $200 this things is a really god investment for peace of mind and lower temps. ANyway nuff talk heres the money shots.

TalonESIT · 07-04-2008, 02:58 PM

Damn! Ramhorn manifolds look so hot! seems to fit with tons of room to spare!

1slow97 · 07-04-2008, 03:26 PM

Does not look bad at all...

totaleclipse_05 · 07-04-2008, 11:17 PM

Good luck with it.

Blitzeclips · 07-07-2008, 05:18 PM

I don't know about it being so close to the thermostat housing and the upper coolant tube. Heat soak is nothing good for coolant, ya know?

But by all means let us know how it turns out and performs..

Any more pics of the thermostat housing so we can see what exactly was done to it?
