Top Mounted Downunder Build

[TRBLSM]

@impossible; wife and I just had our first child so car has been sitting for a while. Decided to just go with a cpe mani/kozmic dp. Should be up n running soon though

The kid has small hands and can probably get in and wrench in places you can't :-)

Pretty let down you're going with a off the shelf kit but I understand your reasoning. I ran that mani and kozmic's ewg dump. The install is just as shit if not worse than what you're dealing with since the runners are oversized cast and close as shit but I can understand if the brake booster and top mounted dp clearance clearance being the reason you're backing out on top mount

I think FJ performance now do a stock location or top mounted mani for a precision.

Yeah I had a chat with them...they only do T3 flange where mine is vband inlet. Also another thing that i thought would be an issue is the ewg runner fouling the AC line (like my top mount mani). Also got a quote for their undercar IC piping (hot & cold side) and came to about $1700 AUD lol

Have you found one available yet? I just had one made here recently with a tial band and its equal length and nice and compact. we are placing the waste gate still but there are no clearance issues so far with a tial 44mm gate and a 62mm turbo.
