RWD manifold on FWD
I know that a rwd manifold will bolt up to the fwd DE/DET. The problem with the RWD manifold is that it moves the location of the turbo more to the right, closer to the tranny, and possibly the crossmember and front motor are also in the way. It is also said that the rwd manifold pushes the turbo out too far and some run a racing civic radiator.
Now here's the thing, whats about this manifold

Looking at it, the seller says its a bottom mount (that is great), and it looks like the turbo would be centered in the middle and not to the right like on most RWD manifolds. I wanted it for the fact that it also had the wastegate flange. Now considering it is T3 flanged, one could get a T3/T25 adapter to run a t28 or t28 turbo correct?
this could be an alternative to taking a stock det manifold and getting an a wastegate flange welded on
What do you guys think? Am I on to something?
