Car looks very good... Is it a GTE, or with GE? What is the stock block record on the GE motor? Good turbo choice but why twin 44?

Lol, did you guys even look at the pics?. The manifold uses (2) 44mm Wastegates, those are the two purple things located near the turbo. Turbo is a H/o 67mm.

The stock block record is 720 wheel, or so i believe. We are shooting for 800 wheel on a bone stock motor.

jdmjzz30-That is our custom intake manifold, made in house.

You will have a hard time making 800 wheel with a 67, even with spray. What kind of cams are you running? I was curious on the 44's cause it seems like complete over kill. Was the record made by Dave H?

Agreed... OEM GE cams will hold you back at higher boost levels. BL made 720whp at 30psi all boost with custom 264 cam regrinds.

I'll throw my hat in on the race to 800whp on a stock GE bottom end (all turbo, no juice). At this point, it's just a matter of turning up the boost.

Whether or not you hit 800, very nice work! Congrats!

Im hoping to make right around 700 wheel with stock cams and the 67mm. This motor has a little more compression to it than my last, which made 550 wheel on pump/61mm. Im gonna spray the 100 shot and hopefully see high 7's/low 8's.

90 red supra- the 44's arent neccesarily overkill. The manifold uses a split collector, and when used with a divided tang housing, will spool hard and make good power. Typically the twin gates allow you to control low boost with a massive turbo, say <1bar on a 42 or 47.

This is the prototype manifold, but im willing to bet this setup is gonna make some very useable power.



Heres the original thread about it, with some comments from its designer:

And...Thanks guys, glad everyone likes it. My main goal is to have a very serious street car that is quite reliable.
