The shitty thin wall short ram rwd manifold. Same one I ran on my car back when it was a DE with 60 trim turbo. Bad part is that it already cracked but it cracked on the new 2" tubing that I had installed for the new wastegate flange. Didn't even crack on the manifold side. He was having problems with his tig welder so I think he just got it too hot on one half of the weld around the tube and it burned too thin and cracked. Hopefully Ill have the new manifold within 2 weeks is what im hoping for. Then gonna have my intercooler end tank modified a bit. Should be pretty sweet. Much better flowing than this one.

Went out friday and again tonight to the strip for the hell of it and got my 13.9@96 mph pass. Again trying to fine tune what I can by feel pretty much. My reaction times were on point too. On the 13.9 pass I had a 2.04 60' on my Hankook Ventus 205/50/15 street tires set to 15 psi. Not bad if I say so myself. The turbo will be here Monday I believe and then its back to boost. Thank God!!!!

Yes, the n/a times are running my shorty small diameter runner turbo manifold open. The motor definitely needs to breathe more. Lots of things killing it performance wise naturally aspirated. But I have my turbo back in my possession and it will be going back on tomorrow.

Yeah, I was just ecstatic about the 2.04 60' more than anything.

So you were running this car NA with a turbo manifold on without the turbo? SO pretty much exhaust exiting out the T3 flange?

Ashton you are a brave man bro. I don't understand it but, damn man you are crazy.

Yep, straight out the flange toward the hood vent. I love to race. No harm gonna come to it from running the motor n/a as I had it somewhat tuned, at least to the point it wasn't having problems. I did several log runs and timing very very conservative and a/f's were on the rich side of things. Again a lot more to be had n/a wise but that's not the plan. I just love to drag race and figured what the hell.

Ive put 1100 miles on the motor so far and 3 trips to the track and about 15 passes on it n/a.
