I have a 16G turbo I want to install on my 96 Eclipse w/ a 420A. Where can I get a manifold that can work on my engine? One of my buddies told me that they don't make a manifold that will fit my car without rigging it up.
 
Your cars exhaust goes to the left where as the 4g63 goes to the right. So you would have to flip the turbo and find someone to custom make a manifold for you. Along with bigger injectors, fuel pump, some type of fuel management and other things to go along with that. I'm not going to say it can't be done, but I'm not sure if its going to be worth it.

That's exactly what it means. In simple terms, slap that thing on your manifold and then bolt up the turbo. Then build the rest of your car to support the 16g cause I don't want someone coming back saying we blew up their car cause someone wasn't smart enough to get supporting mods.
 
I have everything but the manifold. One of my friends said that I would have to get a custom manifold and thats why I wanted to get some more input. Thanks to everyone for the great advice.
 
I have no clue. One's brand new, the other is is VERY good condition. They're slow movers for me because nobody really uses that type of housing because it doesn't fit a DSM-flanged manifold...although it's exactly what you need.

Make me a reasonable offer via PM if you're interested. Keep in mind $20 is not a reasonable offer.
 
you can get a manifold flange and pipes to make your own and then get a t3 flange weld them together and you have your manifold for around $50 . have u got a bigger fuel pump & injectors. you also need a FMU, down pipe (make your own agine cheaper), SMIC or FMIC, intercooler pipes, mabye a wastegate to be safe not to over boost your engine 8 psi max. turbo timer to keep it in good working order. I have a 420a car and want to turbo it I've been researching it for months to make sure it all goes smoothly. if you have any more ?'s get a hold of me i'll see if I can help.
