Hey sorry I went out for some practice runs in my friends evo testing out the dynolicious iphone app lol.
Yeah ill accept a personal check, as long as the check clears before I send out the Injectors.

I would deff go tubular for more top end power, Cast Iron manifolds make better spool due to more direct airflow.

Buschur offeres almost anything you want, they just dont advertise everything on their website. They also have a BAD *** forward facing manifold, but you need a mini radiator to run it. Their manifold runs about 1000$ give or take for a tubular.

It all depends on your goals with the car, and where you plan to take it.
If you want to make crazy power (or even more power) later on, go with tubular now. If you want more spool and you plan on keeping the car the same for quite some time, get cast iron. Either way you cant go wrong.

There are other companies that build nice turbo setups. I just had AFI build a twin scroll manifold for my car. I am putting a twin scroll 35r with a 1.06 a/r. I have used their stuff on other cars of mine, top notch stuff. I always weigh my options and their are lots of good stuff out there, ams is close to you. If you dont plan on doing the work yourself, no reason that you would have to ask other opinions, just drop it off with them and call it a day.

This is the twin scroll manifold that I was talking about.

Not a problem, depending on how long your choice is gonna take. You should wait till i get mine done and see the results. I assure you that it would be no dissappointment coming from those guys at afi. And if you decide to do an afi manifold setup, just tell them dennis sent you. Those guys are like my brothers there.

Yeah I can shoot you some pics of the manifold. I dont remember the total length of time. I will call them on monday to talk to them about a few things, and I will find out a time frame for one, and let you know.

i have a atp 35r with 63 hot side. i run 27 psi of boost on this kit 5 days out of the week for 60 miles each way. it is a good kit with quality parts. i have kick the s**t out of cars with other 35r turbos kits made by big brand names. not to take anything away from the other kits they are good kits i just don't want to mortgage my house to buy a turbo kit. am looking for performance i can afford with reliability. i paid 2500 for my kit new and 140 for my header manifold and i am verry satisfied with the results.

Im am looking for the same thing, save money and get the power Im looking for. I just want something that I will be happy with. I know later on down the line I will upgrade the turbo again but for now a BR GT35R is what Im looking at getting.

my limiter is set at 8200 rpm not 10000 my friend what in your opinion makes atp garbage. it's a bb garret turbo tail wastgate and atp hot side. these seem like name brand parts to me. put your facts were your keyboard is. dont just bad mouth something with no facts to back it up.
