foxbody5l Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I wanted to know if all turbo's had the same flanges for manifolds and headers to bolt onto. I was thinking about making my own turbo setup for my 98 EX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

..SSR.. Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 You have to match the turbo flange to the manifold flange. Popular flanges are 4 bolt and 5 bolt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XScarAudio Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 You have to match the turbo flange to the manifold flange. Popular flanges are 4 bolt and 5 bolt. also, you need to match the flange to the block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 There is no flange on the block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XScarAudio Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 There is no flange on the block. there most certainly is a flange on the header that matches the studs on the block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 That would be the flange that mates it to the head, which has nothing to do with what turbo you use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SexyH22 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 but it has to do w/ what minfold you choose, you cannot use a d-series mani on a b-series for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Pick manifold for your engine. Pick your turbo. Simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XScarAudio Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 That would be the flange that mates it to the head, which has nothing to do with what turbo you use. this is true, i was just letting him know that you cant just pick any manifold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SexyH22 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 i'd say pick a turbo first, then pick a mani that will fit both your engine and the turbo you have. just incase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Pick manifold to match with your powerband and spool goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxbody5l Posted August 20, 2005 Author Share Posted August 20, 2005 If I wanted to potentially boost up to 15 psi, what is the smallest turbo I can use for the sake of getting it to spool up as fast as possible??? Do Honda's respond better to turbo manifolds or headers??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SexyH22 Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 Do Honda's respond better to turbo manifolds or headers??? lol, you really, really, gotta do a little more research b4 attempting to boost a car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SexyH22 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 exhaust manifold = stock Header = aftermakret part turbo manifold = for turbo applications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 If you want the fastest spooling turbo, get a Garrett BB. It's the turbo that comes in the Edelbrock kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
