Same here... what happened to Garm's manifold.
On the 17th, I'll be holding in my hands all the parts to make it happen. After that the next step will be taking it to the welder, and then test fitting it on the engine. I'll be sure to post pics and videos of everything as it happens. |

We got the final version to fit on our motor-on-a-stand, which it did. Now we're waiting on a pre-production version we can put on a test car and go dyno.

Here's the flange as the grooves are being created so that the stock Oring gasket will fit right on.

The idea is to replicate the OEM design as close as possible, so that I can simply bolt it on without needing to make any alterations or adjustments to anything else.
The throttle body adaptor will be grooved in exactly the same manner so as to accept the stock Oring base gasket... |

Here you go all billet.
Right-hand side inlet, shorter turbo piping = faster spool up. And a 70mm Wilson Manifold T/B |

Will be interesting to see how it comes out. Mine took 18hrs to fabricate with CNC time.

I already have a pretty good idea how this will all shake out. Lose some bottom end for sure while maybe gaining a little bit at the top end. But since this is totally uncharted territory... no one knows yet how much of either so that's what I'm aiming to find out for myself. |
