will SBR manifold for 250 fit on my t25? is it worth getting easy to install, HP gains?? some info
thanks

it will fit but you should also get a bigger turbo because right now it is going to do no good for you.

His future plans may include a bigger and better turbo so i really dont see anything wrong with it. He may be in for more mods. But yea, if thats all you plan on getting, Dave is right. Your not going to accomplish any gains from it if your sticking with the t25

i am getting a evo 16g turbo SMIC all the nesscery stuff next summer, so should i wait or go for it, my 3" turbo back will be on next week

 

[mitsuclipsegsx]

if i am not going to get any hp till i get the big 16 turbo then i'll wait, should I?

 

[Dave_Hash]

wait, it might drop in price or go on sale by then

 

[mitsuclipsegsx]

i am not asking if price will go down, should i get it? or wait till i get the turbo next summer?

Get it. It made a world of difference on my 14b in terms of spool. (spools ALMOST like a t-25 now) I would get this no matter what turbo you wanted to get down the line, so long as you aren't planning on keeping the t-25. It's an awesome mani, here, take a look for yourself: My stock 2g mani on the right, SBR fully ported mani on the left.

 

[mitsuclipsegsx]

well it will be like 9 more months of a t-25 still worth it?

 

[sjwelna]

In that case, I would wait till you got your turbo. The stock manifold is more than enough flow for the t-25. You can spend your money else where now, but I would get their mani later on down the road, or get your 2g mani ported out.

You sound like the guys in the Honda forums who put a header on their 127 HP engine and say "it made my neck snap back". I hardly think going from a 2G to a SB manifold will even make a noticeable difference in performance by itself. It's one of those mods that doesn't do much by itself but if used in conjunction with a larger O2 sensor housing, down pipe, exhaust, as well as a larger turbo will make a difference. The 2G manifold is fine unless you have to replace it, ther are better places to spend your money. I had to replace my cracked 2G manifold so I used the EVO III which is larger also and noticed no gains whatsoever.

I know how to read that's why I'm saying that the 2G mainfold WILL suffice for your mods. Feel free to get the SB manifold but don't expect a great performance return for the money. Besides these manifolds are new and who knows how long they will last before cracking. If you don't want advice, don't post asking for it.

 

[mitsuclipsegsx]

i just dont want ur advice

If you re-read my post, you'll notice that I said nothing about power, actually my car felt slower with it on, but not because of the mani, but rather because of it running a bit richer after putting in 650cc injectors. I said it made SPOOL UP a lot faster, that was it. Please don't try to tell me something about MY car, which you have no experience with.
