Im considering picking up a turbo kit here soon and am debating on either the ets super value with 6262 bb or the Buscher HTA35R with cast manifold. Theres a local guy running the buscher setup on his 2.3L and makes great power and spools very very well in comparison to other 2.3L with 35R's. Im thinking that some of that comes from the cast manifold and being in california its also pretty attractive as if I coat it black its a bit easier to hide. I searched around a bit for info on it and to see how others are doing with it but wasnt able to turn up much specifics on the cast mani. I would be running this on a stock block and head for awhile with e85, kelford 272's and full supporting mods. Any insight, links, vids etc would be appreciated. TIA

 

I ran the BR3065 Cast kit and loved it. 23-24psi I was trapping over 120mph.

 

We have guys run our super value manifold and put the sock heat shield back on to hide the fact they have a turbo kit.

Thanks,

Michael

 

yeah thats my other option as well, but needs to be fabbed up is the only down side.

 

cast always works.....but not always the best option

 

You don't say, really?

 

I'm running it, buschur hta35 on cast, i love it.

 

i guess people r used to seeing crazy manifolds rather than cast , ive seen cast make great power

 

I have a buschur tubular kit however my buddy has the cast kit and loves it. Can't go wrong either way.

Good luck with your choice.

 

im running a br cast kit w/ a hta37r and love it to death. im so happy with it that ill prolly not change it ever. looks great with a polished heatsheld on it as well.
