Im looking for the right manifold that i need for a turbo. Not really sure what one will fit my car. It is a 96 2.4. I found this one a ebay will this work for my car?
Or is ther a complete kit that i sould just look for?
It doesnt look like that one would work, the turbo flange points upwards which makes it very awkward for the turbo to be sitting in there, it also then makes the wastegate point down which will hit the coolant tube.

Have you ever even seen an LD9 engine bay?
It would have helped to link the ebay link but its the right one....

Yes. ive also installed turbochargers onto the LD9, im rather familiar with the rear side of that engine.
Thats the mani i have on my car. Worked out just right. Don't know what Vulcan is talkin bout.

Really it actually fits? I just said it appears that it wouldn't! Im surprised though.
Since it is cast, you can port and polish that B!Tc# out a little as well., plus it is less prone to cracking compared to a welded steel one. If you decide to get that manifold, make sure you VHT that thing to prevent rust.

i didnt know that keeping clearance issues in mind shows an expertise, or lack of, on an engine block. He asked if he had any other opinions available to him as well.
