New BW EFR Turbo Thread

Finally fitted up my 7163 with the Full-Race manifold last night.
Notes:
- Fitment is good but tight
- No cutting or trimming!
- Crossing my fingers that my fabricator can fit a mandrel off the hotside for the downpipe

All equal length to within 1-2mm.
Full Race is not equal length, #1 is noticeably longer--> have not measured yet.
Will be awesome setup soon to be tests against HKS7460 for low/mid range spool and response.

The runners of Kiki's manifold look really well designed but the welds look sloppy to me, maybe just a quick prototype?
#4046
not the prettiest but full penetration. Could have made it prettier with deeper beveling but that leads to more distortion when welding.. The collector is a b%^ch to make..
Will put up more pics when it is fully finished.. This one is going to the US and mine will have manifold pressure and EGT ports added..
one additional thing I managed to do is make it work with e9 radiator.. will require a slim fan though..

Both Collin @ Toxic and Pete @ Hypertune have stated bends per runner and runner diameter were more important than runner length in a turbocharged application
#4050
that is true, esp the part about number of bends..
we have concentrated on port transitions, short runner length, while being equal length, and keeping constant runner dia, from port onward.
I am not a believer in large port - small runner - large T4 port, with associated transitions, so this is a concept I wanted to try... we will see how it works..
