Help me find some turbo manifolds
Hey guys im doing a single turbo build on my 6L 300zx and am looking for some manifolds to adapt. I have test fitted the factory manifolds in these photos but they angle out too much as you can see and are too "deep"
I was hoping based on these pics to get some ideas on what style manifold to try. Was thinking maybe c6 corvette or LSA style or even the popular truck manifolds. The cross over will be going under and infront of the crossmember with the turbo on the left hand side (car is rhd)
Ps. Modifying the mounts to suit is no big deal (much cheaper than a set of custom build turbo manifolds!)

Whack the flanges off the manifolds and weld v-bands too them. you can angle the new flange to suite what you need. I cut the 3 bolt flanges off my truck manis and welded a short piece of pipe then welded t3 flange. You could also usw a little longer pipe welded to the manifold and bend and angle till it clears what you need it to then do v-band.
