turbo manifold where to get them

So ive been serching and looking on the forums to see what is a good quality manifold. Does anyone know where to steer me. Im trying to make a turbo kit for my 04 ra. The rrm kit is rrally pricey. But I do like the manifold. Is there a company who makes ram horn style manifolds? I have a budget of 2400 dollars. And hopeing to get a turbo together.

$2,400 isn't much if you're buying a premade manifold...FYI the RRM manifold CAN be purchased separately, but to be honest, it's over-priced, and the last time I saw one in person, the build quality was not great, and also it doesn't come with a matching downpipe, which is retarded since it's designed for an external wastegate...


I don't know if chase from motorsports is still making them, I can't find the website...they looked like this:





hackish, the guy who originally cracked our ECU's, built a turbo kit a few years back, but he doesn't have a shop anymore and does tuning and programming full-time now, but his looked like this:





Mine, I made myself, and is a log style, there's a thread about it in the forced induction section somewhere, but if you type "DIY Log Manifold" in the forum search, it should come up...


Have a look at RPW's turbo manifold, it's designed for an internal wastegate setup, which makes the downpipe desgign cheaper and more simple, and while it's not a ram horn style, it is much more sturdy than the RRM manifold....

I own the RRM manifold and will also advise against buying it. Bad design, known to crack, and overly expensive in terms of what you'll be getting.
