03 CR manifold and charger on 24v?

[hopesanddreams]

I tried searching for a thread similar to what I am asking but couldnt find much other than VGT swaps.

My hx35 is on its last run and i can get a stock manifold and charger off of an 03 CR fairly cheap. Im wondering if anyone else has done this swap and what all it takes to do.

Thanks

different down pipe, oil drain tube, and possibly new feed line. also will probably have to modify your intercooler pipe and how your air filter hooks up. for what you will have into all the changes your better off finding another stock turbo or upgrading.

I heard it goes pretty well if you use a 3rd Gen downpipe and 3G discharge tube to the intercooler. And if you had the 3G drain tube should be able to connect it to the rear port on the block.

If you search there is a thread about putting a 3G turbo on the stock manifold and how to mock up a discharge tube. But then you'd have to clock the turbo which means coming up with an alternate means of rigging up the wastegate. A couple pics of mine here but I didn't have the best setup for the discharge tube [ame="http://s113.photobucket.com/albums/n228/VMac822/My%20Trucks/Red%202001%20Ram/"]Red 2001 Ram pictures by VMac822 - Photobucket[/ame]

if its a he351cw it will bolt right on to the stock manifold. you will have to come up with a intercooler pipe and down pipe. i have one on my truck took me about two hours to do everything.
