Very neat turbo manifold....

I have been contracted to weld these for a local guy that designs and makes them.
Just thought it was pretty neat, maybe some would want a similar set-up for the cobalt...
Finally got the new welder, got to try it on these really neat, bulletproof turbo manifolds...



All cnc'd, then just weld the 3 pieces together. The tubular design is inside the billet!!! :thumbsup:
It's for BMW m3's. Making in excess of 600hp.

Pretty neat. They ran 11.66@129 on stock tires and just their kit.
He's open to development oppurtunities.
What is the stock compression of the 2.0L SS motor? 9:1?

That's beautiful!
Finally thre might be a solution to the "tight spaces" we have to deal with on a mani for the Cobalt/ION.
If anyone has a phone# or other contact info for the CNC "artist" in question- please PM me

Nice welds! That is a hell of a lot better then what I can do. I guess thats why I only use the welder on my own cars.

We should get all the right people involved and get a kit together for the Cobalt.
The results would be well worth it.
Hopefully the guys from HPF feel the same.

This would give you guys a chance against the srt-4's.
Hopefully HPF picks up on this, I'd say a few guys will buy.
Easily go from 13's to 12's on low-boost.
