Default ****turbo Manifold****

I'm tire of searching with no answers, I'm looking for Twin turbo manifolds for my Z and i haven't been able to find any, should i call greddy to see if they sell them to me? or there is any other place that i could get them from?, I'm looking into turbo charging my car with 2 Garrett GT series and using anty-lag system.

I'm new to the z since i only have 3 weeks with it and looking to get some power out of it, I already have my aquamist 2D water/methanol injection kit, forged 8.6:1 pistons and rods, Nismo cams and the E-manage ultimate, i need a strong manifolds since the anty-lag will destroy any custom one. If any of you guys have any info please let me know so i could start my project as soon as possible

Thanks.

Someone posted about this a few weeks ago. GReddy does not sell any components seperately.

Power Enterprise sells manifold upgrades for PE owners that you could use. Little expensive, but if you really want some you could get them from them.

I think you can find the meaning of "anti-lag" if you search the forum, but it means no turbo lag. you get boost while off throttle.

how does it work. you add more fuel while your of throttle. the extra fuel (un burn fuel) goes out the combustion chamber. after that the extra fuel (un burn fuel) runs in the hot manifold and get burn. when it burns it explodes and cusses extra presser which spins the turbo and keeping it from idling spin to a boost spin.

321 stainless in a thick gauge should be able to handle it. Maybe SSR engineering can make you a set. I think I've seen manifolds made with 8 gauge but don't quote me.

Anti-lag is a trick thats been out for a while and has been use in rally cars to get power out of the turbo even while off throttle. (most of them making 35psi without stepping on the gas).

Is call anti-lag system but you don't really need any electronic system to do it other than your regular stand alone or piggy back (E-manage) with timing controlling capabilities to do this. This is how it works.... ones you get your foot of the gas you want to set the ecu to richen up the mixture about 9:1 is good and retard your ignition (this trick starts about -15 degrees) what happen is that your car is firing so late in the combustion cycle that most of the fuel will exit the cylinder un burn and detonating in your exhaust producing little explosion. and what in its way??? the TURBO... this little explosion spool your turbo with out you even having to step on the gas.

But your have to make sure you use a throttle stopper in the opposite way so the throttle body won close all the way since those -15 degrees will kill your engine, you have to provide enough air to make it idle, it sounds good but there are cons to this setup (which i will only use in a track) it destroys your manifold and turbo if taken to an extreme (meaning like -40 degrees) thats why I'm tuning for only 4psi at idle, if done right you will be in love with your car for ever and this new, I'm the man ego will take over making you look for more and more power till you blow your engine up. If anyone is looking to do this i could explain you using the e-manage or e-manage ultimate just pm me.

Yeah we definitely can, in 8 gauge too. But the thing is accomadating GT series housings down there's going to require alot of banging lol.

Bro, anti lag will kill your turbo quick if used all the time!!! You'll smoke the turbine wheel and coke the bearings a lot quicker... Lag is really over rated and you'll be into boost before you know it (especially with the close ratio 6spd MT). Between working the throttle and gears when boost hits, you'll never notice it.

Bro, i remember saying that i'll only use it in the track, plus anti lag will only kill your turbo if you go crazy on it, I personaly have a 89 turbo II RX7 with this setup daily driven and its been fine... I have 3 years of comuting with the car with no problem is all base on how agresive your tuning is. PS we are going out of subject here.
