ssautochrome turbo manifolds are notorious for cracking.

and are you talking about their turbo that has "garrett internals"?
I don't know if I would trust that company on their word that it has garrett internals.

 

Yeah that was the turbo alright. All tubular manifolds are notorious for cracking I have seen many "high quality" manis crack and need to be repaired. I worked at a performance shop a few years back did lots of turbo stuff. Dont see the reasoning to buy a more pricy one the may crack to. I will most likely send out the turbo (if I go with that kit) to be inspected and rebuilt before using it. I did this to my CT26 turbo and it boosted great. So no one knows what to do with that d@m sensor?? ;( It has to go somewhere right.?

 

Ok so update on the boosted Hx. The engine of choice is now a B18B1, picked it up on monday. The plan for the turbo has changed quite a bit as well. I will be running a T3/T4 .50 trim Garrett turbo and tunning with Hondata S100. But first things first I need the rest of the parts for the swap. Then get the B18 in ans running. This should be a fun car to drive after the swap. Going from 117hp 107flbs to 142hp 127flbs.
