OK, not really for sale but a local guy has been working on a super secret P body project and since my Brother used to own the car, he keeps me updated:eyebrows:.

Check the mad fab skilz yo!:thumb: Looks like equal length and it keeps the power steering:clap: As you can see, the turbo is relocated over the trans where it belongs:amen: As for the individual EGT ports, meh, he's a diesel guy:lol: I think he would be done with the car by now if he didn't sit around the house playing Clue all the time:D

looks good but the flange looks like it's mounted 90 degrees off.

Looks like he's gonna run a Mitsu turbo, as in one off of a DSM/EVO 1-3. :nod:

Yeah, I'm not too sure how the turbo mocks up. Judging by the quality of work, it's pretty freakin doubtful they made any errors in the flange:amen:

Setup and production costs vs. demand.

Wow - nice workmanship on that header.

I like how he has (5) thermocouple bungs in the header. (4) at the cylinder head flange, and (1) at the collector. Very nice indeed...!

WOW!!! That is a nice unit. I need to run the 240V line into my garage and find me a welder. Seeing this just makes me want to start fabbing stuff again.

Why, because its a proven fact TM'ers are cheap azz's, :(

FWD had an equal length setup and sold maybe ONE. :o

awesome fab skills, that thing looks great!

the only thing i don't see is a support bracket, imagine a big fat turbo hanging on that header...

I don't remember the FWD one being equal length?

IIR the only equal length ones back in the day were McCracken's long tube 4-2-1 and also SMP's and my 4-1 headers.
