This is a copy of my manifold that I made for a friend in Trinidad.







This is how my manifold sits in my bay.

It's been like that for almost two years with zero issues and yes it has all the creature comforts it had when new and more.
Slim fans in stock location with plenty room to spare. That's why I built my own manifold. My car is not one of those cars that was modified to fit parts. The parts must be built to fit the car.

That's like something I'm interested in creating, I would like to top mount the turbo and dump pipe out of the bumper but they're will be a lot of stuff on that side, currently trying to figure top mount I/c piping. It wi have to be a custom fit as mentioned above.

Currently I have a Koyo with flexalites, and a stock gtir turbo set up and the space is cramped but then again I haven't pushed the radiator under the radiator support, do people keep stock bottom mounting spots or I'm assuming holesaw new ones...

I kept my stock mounting point because my A/C condenser is still there.

Those radiator hoses must be made to take a lot more heat than just from the coolant then That downpipe I'm sure is pushing some really high radiant heat temps. I had a slim fan pretty close to my bottom mount(not touching), plus the j-pipe it was close to had a heat shield on and it melt the wires from the fan, which shorted out the fuse lol. Learned my lesson. I flipped my new slim fan upside down so the wires and such were further away from the j-pipe. It still looks a little melted, but hasn't gone completely 'yet'.
