Default 1st Gen. Turbo Manifold...

Does anyone know of a place (other then KIA-FX) to get a turbo manifold?

I'm looking at going with a T4. I'm fairly new with turbos, however I'm very good with mechanically fixing, and hooking things up. Have any pointers 2004? Nice "Impreza" btw!

You won't do anything in a Rio with a T4 not to mention you'll have a hard time finding a manifold for that. Read and read and once you think you have learned all there is about turbos read some more.. You need to have some fairly decent knowledge of engine dynamics and turbocharging before you start to do anything on your own.

Oh and trust me I know about engines - I've re-done mine twice and it only has 36,000 miles on the car! 175 direct port juice sir! (Head didn't like that!) I'm better now at 150 tho!
