I stared at these pics and my car for awhile last night, I was trying to convince myself but I just can't see a way this fits in a C6 without a good bit of work. Also it appears like the front wastegate interferes pretty hard for guys that run a motor plate.
Yes! I cut a hole in my carbon fiber fender, send it!

We're not sure either. We think this manifold at this price is going to find it's way into a lot of more common applications first, but the performance will be there for those fast guys at the other end of the scale that seem to always find a way.

I question how effective the WG placed at 90 degrees is really going to be. I've always been told that is a big no no and will cause overboost issues because the gate isn't seeing actual pressure.
The gate on the front looks great, in my limited internet opinion.

Not on my car, and my engine is far enough forward to use the truck ac compressor location. I think I can manage a 3.5" downpipe. This straight piece has 1/4 inch clearance at the corner of the firewall and the edge of the manifold flange.

Also, don't forget you need room for the driver's side pipe and a v-band clamp at that joint. I think even a 3'5" downpipe will be close.

This is a very good design that will fit well in a g-body. Cross-under pipe is going to fit well and I will be able to make a sweet 3.5" DP with attaching waste gate pipes over and under the manifold.

Be interesting how it fits on my G body, I am using the Hooker engine mounts, so the head is close to the firewall. I am using the Holley turbo manifolds, kind of worried about the manifold/engine mount on the pass side, I vision it melting in the future, lol. I have it all plumbed up with a 4" DP, which is a must. I have everything off being painted, be nice to have a manifold to test fit. How was the turbo placement, room to plumb the intercooler, etc.

I am using Spohn F/G body mounts on the frame with the 4th generation camaro/LS clamshell engine mounts. It gives you the freedom to mount the engine wherever. For me, the Chevy truck A/C compressor dictated for/aft location. That gives me more head to firewall distance, giving me room for a 3.5 DP. Intake and intercooler plumbing side are wide open.

Rich words. I could send a 20 dollar bill to China and they would ask me to pay for tooling before producing. Owning tooling != completely unique. Scribing your name on the top hat != completely unique. If it's completely unique, why is it blatantly the exact same thing as Tials NEW unit? I understand their wastegate from 20 years ago is copied and standard, ok fine. Tial moved on and innovated. Only to have Summit copy their NEW unit and brand it as their own. Wow.
I actually emailed Tial, and here is their response:
Skeptical? Call or email them yourself. This is egregious AF.

Tial,
I see the Summit SUM-260072 is your MV-R. Are they your units rebranded? Is there a difference? Because they have theirs at now 89usd and yours is at 434usd. Thanks!

Hello,
Sorry for the late reply.
These are not rebranded Tial units. These are knock off units that Summit has decided to brand themselves.
