Ecotec Turbo Mani :(
Monday, December 13, 2010 9:02 AM
Is there any company that still makes a decent-made log style turbo manifold for the eco? Was going to buy the cast one off ebay because I heard it was strong but I can no longer find it. And any steel ones I find have weak looking welds. I'd like to buy one badly. Help?

If you'd like a log manifold that's proven to 500 HP and low 11-second passes in a street J, let me know...we build them daily.

Or he could sell it to me directly and save himself some time. Dude give me a price so I can plan for it. Maybe show me a pic of it so I can see how you have it setup and all. Thanx bud.

Cody, too bad that's not a top mount. No way in hell the turbo would clear my auto trans.

Bill, just out of curiosity what does your ecotec log mani w/ a t3 flange run? This is a daily and will rarely see 10psi so the hp rating doesn't mean much in this case unfortunately.

Sh*t sorry Mike I don't have your cell number anymore. Water plus phone equals new phone. How much to make a simple log mani, i'll buy all the flanges? The mani i have is just too f*cked up to deal with, I just need a new one. I'm hunting for a good deal and currently have two offers.

^^^That's all I'm looking for. And I've seen Mike's welding in person on a number of metals and it's legit as hell. Still waitin on a response though Mike... Time is of the essence.

Which turbo and wastegate would you be putting on it?

Not arguing that, mike is very good welder and fabricator. My post was more so saying a log is a log and proven to x amount of hp isn't a factor.....

Thanks! Seems like you've already got this handled, but we typically would charge $299 complete, all materials and flanges included. Our design is the most well-proven in the industry, with thousands sold in over ten years of production. They carry a five-year unlimited mileage warranty against cracking, and feature a fully machined turbo mounting flange pocket for optimal turbine inlet flow, unlike many inferior knock-offs.

We take great pride in the refinement this many years of continuous production has allowed, and feel the product we offer is hands-down the best you can buy.

Bill, 299 isn't bad at all! I still have to talk to Mike to see if he'll need my car for the mock up and what not. So if that's the case I may go with HRC. I can't afford to have my car down for just the mock up. I'm gettin the manifold asap then getting pipe for the downpipe and dump pipe, new drain and feed setup, etc. Mike, what's the word on down time?

Bill, link or picture of this log to see where the flanges are and angled? Blueprint works if thats all you have.

Mike will be doing the work since he gets parts for cheap. All mild steel too. Thanks Mike, I'll call you when the money is ready. Other members may want to talk to him too if they need a log mani especially on a budget.
