The best stock replacement manifold is the new ETS twin gate 38mm MVS. This manifold is the only one of its kind and is the best manifold available for the stock appearing turbos. This design eliminates as much pre turbine back pressure as possible. This would be a better mod than the external dump 02 housing. If you guys have any questions, I’m sure Michael from ETS will gladly chime in.
The manifold has not been tested yet, however I may be looking at testing it for Michael. The design of the manifold is a given it will produce amazing gains. It increases the flow potential manifold over the stock casting design and using the twin 38mm MVS gates off the runners allows the exhaust gases to bypass the turbine wheel, lowering the pre-turbine backpressure and allowing the turbo to operate much more efficiently!
I think the Red/Black at 3-40psi would see much higher gains than the stock turbo.

Mikey I remember when ETS started making the single External wastegate you wern't a fan. Are you basing this on design? I was interested but the price and no real data has made me watch from afar.
I will more then likely go FPBlack on whatever motor setup I decide to go with and runing E85 well def. put me in the 35 to 40 PSI range so I would love to see if its worth it.
It is bad *** looking.
JM Fab stock replacement Twinscroll mani gets my vote. the shearer, mona lisa, and full race are all in the same category.
the ets looks the best and has great potential to produce power, however requires the welding of the internal WG flapper, so not exactly direct bolt on. regardless im in love with that, so im excited to see some power numbers from it.

It is very $$$, however there are people willing to play...

I am very curious about the results and would consider this is it is proven to be worth the cost.

If that manifold makes the FP Black act like a bigger turbo (IE holds best better to redline) I may reconsider going bigger. I wonder how it would do on pump gas with that mani?
why go through all that with welding up an FP Black's wg flapper and the manifold with dual external wastegates.. doesnt seem to me to make as much sense since you can get a legit twinscroll T4 setup for less $$? Hell if theres demand we can put 2 wastegates on our Evo stock turbo manifold, but id feel bad charging someone for all that when they can just go t4

This manifold looks like the biggest waste of time.. What crap!
Why would you even bother? Just go straight to a TS HTA3582 if your going to this much effort!!
i woud get the new mani from toxicfab... you guys should check this out... if monalisa had a sexy sexy sis this wouyld be it. also weighs the same as the stock. made some great numbers over stock you guys should check it out......
