Turbo XS T4 Manifold

[cookmeup272]

Does anyone have any FIRST HAND experience with the Turbo XS T4 exhaust manifold and would like to share?

I think you's mistaking Turbo XS for someone else. They don't make a header/manifold for the DSM.

Maybe the OP meant XS Power?

^^^ That'd be my guess.

I thought so and in that case I'd say look away, my friend. Don't waste your money on that crap.

oops my bad, I did mean XS Power. The only reason I ask is because I can get one for next to nothing. Usually I say stay away from the cheap crap but like I said I can get it for dirt.

here is the thing, buddy. If you get it, you gotta make a down pipe and everything else to fit. WHEN it fails, you'll have all of these parts made for a part that you can't use anymore. If you do go that route, get with a welder and get it braced at the flanges and braced from runner ends to turbo flange to help support it. I think Punishment sells some of those, braced.

good luck, man.

I dont know about the fitment part.. I didnt have to mod anything to fit... but yes WHEN it fails you will have to buy a new manifold... save that cash... buy something you wont need to replace in the NEAR future.

I do not have first hand experience with XS Power, and I probably never will;

if you are spending a lot of money on a t4 sized turbo you might as well put out some money for the manifold as well. I have some ebay manifold and it has cracked in 4 different spots. The reason why I keep fixing it is cause I now have a downpipe, wastegate dump, oil drain, etc made up for this setup. By spending less now it will cost you more in the end trust me
