that's a lotta money to spend on a stock turbo mani... with marginal benefits.

i already said this but i think you guys should consider not running als with the stock turbo, you can do enough things to the stock turbo to get it spooling crazy fast. if you want the pop pop then just run a little rich, you'll be poppin' like crazy.

also... you can run als a number of ways... the antilag bosses are actually the worst way to run it (almost). the amount of specialized fab that comes from the factory that you would have to try and reproduce yourself isn't worth it. just get a throttle kicker or run cold side into your egr. both those require less "like stock" remodification and can be run on ANYTHING not just the stock turbo.

i think only turbos like the 3076 and bigger need the antilag. because they're so close to spooling like stock but will never get anywehre near spooling faster than stock. you can turn antilag on and off too with the flip of a switch so it wouldn't be troublesome shooting fireballs and sounding like a driveby everywhere you go.

remember that the key to als is to feed o2 in the exhaust so you can burn fuel i the manifold. there's many ways to do it.

I have a j spec Evo IV, so it comes with the ALS, and no popping here tho Im hitting about 360 hp and 350 ish tq (no dyno yet, its a 3 hour drive to a legit one). Its definitely great in the mountains, quicker spool than without one too, even going up hill. I took out a GTR this past weekend from stop light to stop light (just because he had tooooo much horses 700hp to be exact, and kept peeling out the start of the race and during shifts, it was almost like he was drifting on a drag race, I guess my buds not too good with it, and he likes to keep it on rear wheel drive plus he came off a Honda) he could have wooped my a$$ easy but.... $*!t happens. I want to get this turbo that bolts on to the stock mani, but I want it to withstand the heat. Im trying to achieve the HP between 400 and 500 area. I dont know how reliable the turbo im looking at but heres the site for the turbo:

That's cool It just looks like from the mani that I have, there are brackets to reinforce the welds where the week/cracking points would be. we'll see I guess. Time will tell.

you should be spooling faster up hill... and all non usdm evos come with antilag ready hardware and just need the tuning. the 21g will prolly not get you very much more than 400hp on pump gas... but then againit depends on what pump gas is where you are.

We are almost finished with our stock turbo manifold. We will have dyno results to show the hp and torque gains. You guys will not be disappointed in this unit at all. Once you see the pics it will be hard to not purchase one of these manifolds.

I honestly dont see too much of a point using a manifold for the stock turbo. I have had great results with Ron Shearer's stuff. Any DSMer will know his name, he has been around for a long time, makes bad *** stuff, and is a great guy to talk with. He would probably consider making you a one-off manifold for the stock turbo if you really wanted it. Here is his website, http://www.shearermotorsport.com

You wont be disappointed! I have pics of what he made me as well if you want to see them...

The Shearer header looks good. What turbo is that with the Shearer header?

Well here in Japan, we got 100, 104 and up octane, and hell yeah, theyre great if you dont mind paying 4 bucks per litre. Im sticking to the set up I have, gone taking the mountains on you know... ALS helps a lot, stock versions.

see the thing is... i know of someone tuning a car for a customer and this car has the tme turbo with ti internals, he's got the right stuff to support it and he gets zero vac at idle... when it touches the pedal the boost goes to 1 bar.... with that... i don't think anyone is complaining about lag... if you wanna go the extra mile you can... and you can do it all reliably. als is for people with no choice but to bang it up.

hey whats he got in it besides that? I need something that can spool up my turbo a lil quicker. If I dont go with the 21G then im going with the 10.5 hot side TME style and maybe with ti internals. Prolly just go with the DNP mani's, but besides all that...What does he have to get his car up like that?

well... just get evertyhing that increases spool and response. ic pipes (not huge ones) header that is well made and tuned for boost response, cames that are tuned for boost response, port and polish the head (don't need oversizing for the stock sized turbo... that willl cause you more problems). but it's mainly the ti internals and such a small turbo. get a very good intercooler that has no pressure drop... all that.
