Just bought my new turbo!!! Need a manifold

[Boomdeeze]

Hey guys!!! Just wanted to let you know I decided to go with the Borg s259 extended tip and ported!!! But it is a custom one, the turbine wheel is an airwerks aftermarket exhaust housing .84AR.I picked it up for 500 shipped from a friend!!! It has a t4 flange so I need to get a new manifold, and Im thinking of the punishment budget one for 250. Would this be a good manifold for it? Or should I look else where? I hope to hit the 11's and think this turbo can get me there!!!

you got the turbo for cheap why not spend more and get a nice manifold for it?

Im in college and sold my G50 w/ o2 housing for 675, so im kind of on a budget and cant fork over 500 for a nice manifold.. The manifold that punishment makes shouldn't be too bad at least for awhile.

punishment is a reputable company, from my previous experience with them I would say that they're manifold should be of reasonable quality and worth every one of the 250 dollars you pay for it. the more expensive ones are also worth their higher price tag, but that much perfection is probably unnecessary, esp. if you are on a budget. and if there is for some reason a problem with the manifold I have no doubt that punishment will assist you as much as possible, their customer service is excellent

I have heard alot of good things about them also and I am pretty set on using their budget manifold. I guess I will find out what that manifold is really capable of

Go with the punishment manifold.

That looks familiar.

That looks familiar.

It should . I think this turbo should be fun. If it has a little too much lag for my liking, I will switch the housing to a t3 .70AR BEP housing. But from what I have read, I should be fine.

Or you can always go with a DSM bolt-on housing; proven to 500+whp on the S259.
