soooooooo sick Jim

i did mention your name jim. but im not copying your design, topspeed also has a top mount, along with a billion civics, and my v8 focus lol. there are only so many ways you can make a topmount that isnt a log manifold. i plan on making the runners on mine shorter and mounting the wg different. we will see after i get the car how it turns out.

eta on the car is up to the guy that is bringing the car. should be about a month

First off amazing job. Fine work of art right there.
Second what's the biggest you can run with that top mount?
That turbo looks like a precision 6262

jm had a gt3582r on his car. the car in the pic is a guy in GA that he built the kit for.

also jim didn't mean for my mentioning of starting to build kits or top mount manifolds to bother you. i consider us friends. i have always liked your work and admired your job getting to work with and build cars like you do. im just trying to get my self started in the business as well. if any one says my stuff is pretty enough for what i charge or if they want an intake manifold i'll make sure to send them your way.

some of my shed 10 304ss

your not stepping on any toes at all man. im sure as you have seen my FB i dont do much with the focus anymore, only thing I (chaz and I) really do alot of are the Intake manifolds and little pieces.

edit: Stainless weld looks pretty good. turn up the gas a little. are you using a gas lens at all?

there enough room for a 67mm turbo but thats about it.

[Turbo Turtle]

yeah i know what the room is like. ive had a turbo top mount focus before to. even though it was a log i remember how close it was. esp for that cooling hose and thermostat outlet with a 50 trim

[Turbo Turtle]

gas was set to about 12lph if i remember correctly. its a no7 gas lens. 316L 1/16 filler.

i did not use any back purge on that piece b/c i havent got my tee or other regulator in yet. just ordered it.

and shake'n like a dog shit'n peach seeds cause i drink to many monsters lmao
