the manifold will depend on the turbo ur getting man... after u decide, then check the flange size (t3, or t4) mine was the t3 flange (hot air/ exhaust)
im looking for the one i've bought
whenever i find the one i've bought ill post it...
good luck!

and sir_nasty, that's not the manifold cause it's not uneven.. it should be 0-00-0
not 0-0-0-0...

Yeh i'm gonna call around Monday or Tuesday and make sure the manifolds on these sites i'm looking at has the uneven port design.

KevinAccord, where did you get your turbo and how much did it run you if you don't mind me asking?

Just wondering, what are the advantages of both internal/external wastegates????? I see that most of Garretts turbos have internal wastegates. From my understanding, external wastegates are really only needed on cars pushing high psi for better airflow.

Advantages of an internal wastegate is that from an installation point of view, they are simpler. Limits are that internal wastgates will become ineffective much beyond 10psi tops, and it can be harder to adjust the boost levels. Advantages of an external are the fact that they can handle much more boost, and can be easier to adjust. Downside is they tend to have a more complicated install. If you are going low boost, an internal will work just as good for you as an external, and would be cheaper too.

well, i got an external and it wasn't hard to install, there again, that was my case... and it sounds cool when it opens!!!! hahaha...
Shadow: if u don't mind me asking, how much did u spend on "massively" modifying ur H22?(just an aprox) if it was too much just say "too much".
and another question... if i switch my F23 head to an H22 head, will i be able to push more psi?
