Hello.
My friend has bought a garrett turbo kit for his celica st205. The turbo will have a external wastegate (42mm), now we got all the parts we need, including a T3 downpipe. BUT, we are struggling with the exhaust manifold. We can't find any manifolds with T3 flange that fits this engine, also we need to have a hole for the wastegate. We are desperately needing one but we can't find one, so now we are planning to use a after market manifold with CT20B flange. It can perhaps be used if we cut the flange, and make a T3 flange and weld it on the manifold, plus we need to drill a hole on it for the wastegate. The problem is that it is much hard work and easier said than done. So, I'm wondering if anyone know where I can get this T3 manifold for a reasonable price ? Is it possible ? I have found some on eBay but they are for the 2nd gen engine, but they are also without the hole for the wastegate. What should we do ??

There is a guy in australia who would make a copy of mine. However its in australia, its steam pipe, and the highest of quality so is about $1000 aud. Shipping would hurt you.

QUOTE (Smaay @ May 19, 2011 - 9:45 AM)  Are you sure it will fit my manifold ? Because it's CT20B I used before, not CT26. Or is it the same flange ? -------------------- - Celica ST202 w/ JDM 3S-GE 180HP (Special LE Subaru Blue steel paint!)

CT 26 and CT 20 have the same flange, thats why so many alltrac and MR2 owners want CT20s

korban: Bit hard to tell from the pic but by judging by the cost ide say it would be thin walled stainless. Might be worth your while to brace the turbo.
I dont like the wastegate being on that side either. -------------------- ST205 Group A Rallye GT-Four, #61 of 77............600hp GT3582r

Korban let us know how that manifold goes, I've ordered a bit of stuff from him and half of it is junk. But my flatmate runs one of those manifolds (that one on his AE92 3S-GTE and a 4A+T one on his AE92 4A-GZE FX-GT Corollas) he says they're fine, but then again he never drives those cars, whereas I drive mine all day every day so I had a custom 3S-GTE-T28 steampipe made up and ceramic coated
manifold cost $800 coating was about $200 220+GST for manifold, turbine housing and downpipe coated -------------------- Mike W

Yeah I was too cheap to go the custom way.
I thought the wastegate port was weird to, but it's to clear the alternator. I was going to use an adaptor on the factory manifold but was worried the oil drain would get almost horizontal. I was going to brace the turbo regardless. Will let you all know how it goes. |
