Hey Miko I'm looking to put an sr20de in my four door b13. Any suggestions as to wat I need to swap an a ga16 to a sr20de.

HOWTO: 1.6 GA16DE to 2.0 SR20DE/T Swap - SR20 Forum

1:It's been covered many many times How to swap a ga16 to sr20.

2: Make sure you search before posting. A simple search would have found the answer to your suggestions easy and save you time waiting for replys.

3: If you need parts Pm miko.

4: Make sure your posting in the correct section. Your not going to get much suggestions on swaps info in a "Turbo" section.

I have this manifold now they had an internally gated turbo and it faced towards the firewall. The flange will have to be moved to make a turbo fit any other way or else the compressor housing will hit the trans mount. A friend of mine does manifold work so maybe we can get it straightened out? Or do you guys think i should leave it the way it is?

is that the manifold that was up on ebay? from canada? i was looking at it. was a steal for the price.

yea this is it i didnt realize how low it sat and if the turbo was to face forwards it wil hit the trans mount so im going to have the flange shortened and rotated upwards.

Just to update this thread... I got this manifold



And for flow and heat works pretty well I can say it works way better that stock avenir manifold I had (which got hot like hell) now it gets hot but pretty normal as now I get 1500°F at most (cly #2) when WOT and before I used to get 1700°F or more with stock avenir manifold

Bad news is that material used is so thin that it cracks a lot!!! And when I say a lot, it really means a lot!! At about 20 to 30 wot passes and a new crack develops and you can start hearing the exahust leak.

We have added some strenght to it by soldering small metal sheet plates between collectors right where the T2 flange is and this has make it last longer but eventually cracks again and the nice looking manifold you buy is not that nice anymore after doing this.

Next time I take it apart I will take some pictures.

PD this is the manifold I am currectly using

and it ain't that cheap.

So in terms of design it's good but on terms of material used it's pretty bad.
