Hey I was trying to inquire what everyone’s running for turbo manifolds on their 2jz swaped MK III's. Right now I have a cheap ebay manifold that has done me well so far I’m nervous of the quality and if it’s going to last much longer. Also the tube coming from my manifold to my waste gate rests of my sub frame and I have a feeling is going to crack my manifold at some point. If anyone has any guidance that would be great. So far I haven't been able to find a drewgo manifold and I really don't want to speak $1900 on a super nice one from sp,bl, or titan.

Thanks,

Matt

Idk if they made a new one for jz the but the 7m has one thats been updated, Most just run the ss mani. Unless you pay high dollar thats about it. Maybe find one used.

Ya I have a feeling i'm going to run into a dead end here. i'm probably just going to have to live with the one I have or buy an expensive one.

Manifold looks great!

I might just have to get my waste gate tube moved. I can do all the fabing and just have the local shop weld it.

Sure, rub it in Rodel... I may have to contact your fabricator sooner than later. What sort of lead time should one expect with Pham?

I spoke with him last night and he seems like a very reasonable guy. I ended up purchasing a drewgo manifold instead it fit my budget alittle bitter. I really appreciate you giving me the lead though.

That's good to hear Rodel, all depends on how money flows in the short term, but from what I see, I'll likely be commissioning him for a 1j manifold as well. :)

After twisting my arm for a long time I finally gave in and sold my very last 1jz Manifold to my buddy a couple months ago.I had this thing stashed away in a vault somewhere and Now he is going a different route....FML!
So if anyone wants it PM me and I'll forward you his info or vice versa. It's brand new, never been used.

Cheers!
