I was flipping through the pages of the march copy of turbo magazine and under the Sema show new products section there was a new manifold from hafe performance. The manifold caught my eye because it is cast but doesn't look like the typical cast manifolds. It has a design similar to equal length tubular manifolds. Has anyone heard of this? This is not for a stock turbo.

Looks good with me but no date on release or cost

 

that's kinda' cool, it's a rapid prototyped resin manifold. There's an O2 housing as well. it's got an external gate so it's not for a stock turbo...

 

I believe it said in Turbo Magazine its for Garrett turbochargers

 

I saw this as well and was curious about it. Looks good to me. They say it is for turbos with a t4 flange i believe.

 

The magazine said it was specifically for the gt35r turbo so anything in that class of turbo should work.

 

Looking at it again it looks awesome but it's going to be a PITA to port gasket match and polish.....

i might be up to the cahllenge though.

 

I called about it. It will be sold through slowboy. Retail is 650. Another 300 for the cast 02. It is flanged for T3 and a tial 44mm. Looks like a sweet manifold to me. They said they will be ready in two weeks. But it sounds to me like two months or more.

 

two week was about right.. we (slowboy) are making our own kits with this manifold as we desgined and did fitment for them. There are kits already sold, and if anyone has any questions about the full drop in kit with the stainless steel manifold and O2 housing feel free to email me mas@slowboyracing.com
