Nope. I'd have to work out if it was worth doing first. Most people are happy to stick with the T25 family turbos so they don't need a manifold made. There'd have to be a few guys who wanted some done to make it worth the effort.

The dump pipes I make are already as tight as I'd want to go, so they may even work as is! I've already started on the custom turbo manifolds too - prize shit job so they wouldn't be cheap!

I was subscribed on my home address before and it was getting a bit much. This time I've tried doing it at work, so we'll see how it goes. Between the Srtransplants list and this one I'm afraid my email volume may be getting a bit high! I'm currently not running a cat (smack smack!), but when I do I guess it will be in the usual place just after the dump pipe. The best dump pipe dia is generally 3". That's pretty much the biggest you'll fit without hassles. I've made a few now and I'm considering making a batch for sale to suit SR's into 1600's. I'll send you a photo of one. I've seen a lot of "professional" dump pipes and I've decided that it wouldn't be too hard to improve on them myself!

Anyway, thanks for the advice. The muffler I have coming has a 2.25 inlet and 4 inch outlet. So I'm still undecided what size to go from the crossmember back. Up until the crossmember I'm going to use 3 inch for sure. Where did you mount your cat? The other question I have is what size dump pipe to use? I want to seperate the internal wastegate gases from the turbine gases and join them together after the dump pipe exits the engine bay. The turbine itself is only about 2.25" in diameter so should I use a 2.25" - 3" reducer/expander and build a 3 inch dumpy with a 1.25" seperate wastegate pipe?
