Sheepey vs other manifolds

Someone has decided to buy my sheepey ff vband manifold with turbo. I've wanted this for sometime so now I can pull the trigger on a twinscroll setup with a 6870. I got to searching and there's a few brands out there. The thing I've noticed is with sheepey ff t4 ts I'm not really sure if it comes with the wastegate dump tubes or not? I've searched their website and can't seem to find the dump tubes or the downpipe exiting the hood. Its going to be a hood exit so need to try and find a ts manifold that sells dumptube and downpipe exiting hood.

Give Matt a call @MorrisonFab , He'll be able to hook you up, the only down side is the 18week lead time(they do stick with the schedule).

Sheepy seems to not list turbo kits any more on the site. I'm sure if you contact them they can build a complete kit.

You have a few options. Sheepy, Morrison Fab, and JM Fab will likely build you a custom kit with hood exit exhaust and dumps.

Full-Race, ETS, and STM would be worth contacting to see if they can do similar, but I'm not so sure they offer the hood exit stuff.

Yeah its some what easy to find the correct manifold but I just want the hood exit stuff. Ill give Morrison fab a call and see what they can do. I wanted to stick with sheepey but its hard to get a hold of them

Morrison's product has to be at the top right now - there are no ways to fault it and their testing has been phenomenal. I saw a picture of a Sheepey transition from the head flange yesterday and cringed, it certainly wasn't going to produce the best numbers possible. The good product is worth the wait (I made my deposit in June and sent my turbo in).

Honestly, most places in the car business will tell you 4-6 weeks and quickly turns into an indefinite/undetermined time frame with " delays". From what I've read. Morrison says 18 weeks, and thats how long it actually takes.

should be worth the wait! You can also reach out to BSfab/BeanFab/Archer Fab and see what the build time is.

Does seem like a long wait time but definitely worth it. Thinking im going to go with the vband ff kit. Have him make some custom hood exit dp with dumptube.

So. You're selling a vband kit and getting another vband kit? Seems pointless. Just change turbos.
