thanks yeah it wasnt cheap thats for sure. im trying to make some good power with a vp. we will see how it goes
 
That looks bada$$! Is that one of those billet steel manifolds? If you don't mind how much was it with the spot for an external gate?

I'm confused?

That manifold is for a twelve valve head and you should have a 24 valve head (round exhaust ports) if its a VP truck.
 
Info/specs on the turbo and prices on both would be cool

manifold was 715 shipped to my door from steed speed with all provisions i asked for.

the tubo is a precision 67mm air cooled bb with billet wheel and polished h compressor housing. it was about 2600 as is

as for the manifold i spoke to the owner at steed speed and he told me that he uses a universal style manifold ports. the arent actually square but they balloon out on the sides to work with 12 and 24 vavlves. he assurd me it would seal. i put a gasket up to it and it works.
 
i would like to hear some opinions as well on this manifold as im close to pulling the trigger on one.

seeing it in person really shows the craftsmanship. and plus all the options make it easy to adapt to any setup without using manifold adapters and other stuff. he machined an upper and lower half and tigged the two together. no porting needed. it smooth on the inside just like the outside and he said as long as you are the original owner he will warranty any breakage or warpage free of charge.
 
Pull the trigger! :hehe: You don't even have a "GUN" :kick: LMAO

lol, im a florida born hillbilly...i have guns. dont be a hater garey, a man can wish...maybe one day. you should come by and check out this turd im building now.

thats cool, i like the wastegate option built in. im looking at purchasing a non gated charger at the same time with a jgs 40mm gate to top it off.

it doesnt hurt that fact that it just looks soooo cool!
 
I will be pulling our T4 steed speed manifold off this weekend. I plan on selling it and going to a T6 steed speed manifold so I will take some pictures of how the manifold held up after a season of pulling.
We never had another manifold on this truck so I can't give you a comparison.
