Why not?

[Puffwagon]

A before and after would have been better but I wasn't thinking about taking pics. Oh well 

 

[k31th]

does look like you did a pretty smooth job on the machining, but I'm not somebody with an educated opinion on this topic haha

[Puffwagon]

Yeah it's fairly straight forward and they did come up pretty good. I'm no expert though

I can take a pic of mine for you to use as the before shot! They don't shudder but look nicely grooved and glossy...
I doubt they'd fit in the father-in-laws lathe and I'd rather poke my eyes out with a stick than use his (any) milling machine!

[Puffwagon]

I used a machine that does them on the car. It's a very quick process compared to the old method, once you've got the hang of it.

So yerp there is an exhaust manifold in transit to my house to suit the 7675. I still have the box of pipes, so if and when I get some spare time, I'll make the manifold I intended to. Until then it's gonna be another boring high mount 7675 territory...haha oh well

 

Just for the exhaust lovers, I might pipe it through the stock rear section to see what happens lol

 

At any rate it should hit the dyno before xmas. I guess we'll see soon enough

[Puffwagon]

Manifold arrived today. It came with a stud set as well as a T4 gasket.

Keep me in mind if you make your exhaust manifold and sell the 6 boost one!

I remembered in Gary's thread you said that a barra in an R31 would be cool. I'm pretty sure "Bobby McBoost" (from YouTube) and his mates are doing it. Unsure who he is in the forums if any but he's in Tasmania and seems to be tuning (using PCMTEC) all his mates barra patrols etc...
