As title says I am looking for a header or better yet a mexican exhaust manifold from the TBI cars south of the border. I know these are very rare but if anyone has any or any leads on one I am very interested.

whats the difference between the us tbi manifold an the Mexican version, sorry just want to know
The Mexican one flows better. The runners are much straighter than the US version. It is possible that the Flex Fuel vehicles sold in the US also came with these exhaust manifolds but I have never seen a flex fuel vehicles with them. I guess it wasn't actually on a TBI car either when it was sold in mexico because the Mexican cars had MPFI on their turbo and N/A cars

oh nice, thanks for the information
what about a long tube header that puts the turbo back in the stock location?
Description from who I bought it from
-custom collector, 4 to 1
-primary lengths of 15" for #1, #3, and #4, with #2 about 19". +/- 1" for all.
-primary are 1.5" OD, 16 gauge, 1.375" ID
-entire construction is mild steel, TIG welded
-Primaries were crushed to size and then inserted into head flange all the way up to the head surface, and then TIG welded INSIDE the flange. Same on collector pipe to turbo flange. I believe this greatly improves structural rigidity and improves durability.
-Turbo flange is braced directly to head flange with TWO 1/2" dia. steel bars.
I am actually looking for this for an NA build so that won't work for me but I appreciate the offer!
Not a problem. Guess I didn't fully read everything (wife tells me this alll the time)
I have a regular TBI manifold if you need one
I have a regular one, looking to try and upgrade from that but I highly doubt I am going to find one
There are several members of the various Turbo & FWD Mopar groups on Facebook that are from Mexico and sell stuff from time to time if you're so inclined to look there.
I am from Mexico, right across the AZ border and have access to those manifolds. If you're still interested please send me a PM..
