T2 2.2 Header or upgraded exhaust manifold
I am trying to mock-up this custom tubular header I got a few years back on here and its not fitting with my new V-trim turbo. If anyone has any tips to make this header work I would also greatly appreciate those! Looking to trade this for a TU header or anything else you got at this point. Let me know what you got and what you are looking to get. Thanks in advancehttp://www.turbododge.com/forums/mem...ngine-rear.jpg

Wonder what turbo it was made for?
That flange positioning is tight. Would have to be a big A/R turbine housing to reach in there?
Your turbine housing twin scroll?

Port out that stock exhaust manifold and just use that.
I don't even see how you can access the stater with that thing on, never mind the axle, turbo, hoses, etc... Not worth the trouble.

That looks like a BBQ set up for the stock starter.
I'll ship you a factory exhaust manifold. 25$.
It's heavy and i'm in florida.
port it out. or have some whizz bang guy port it out.
that looks miserable to dealer with .
Edit *
isnt that a stock exhaust manifold in the picture?
just bolt it on.
Re: T2 2.2 Header or upgraded exhaust manifold
+1 to the above. The stock exhaust manifold isn't the restriction. Chrysler engineers proved that years ago.
Need more proof? Just look at Shadow's Charger. He's running 10 second 1/4's, and he's running a heavily ported stocker.
That header you have looks like a nightmare in the making. I see lots of broken welds & pipes in your future, along with being virtually impossible to service....

Re: T2 2.2 Header or upgraded exhaust manifold
Thanks guys! Would have loved to get this thing to work, but I agree that it is not worth it. Yes that is a stock exhaust manifold there in the photo. Does anyone have a ported stocker laying around? My 2 piece intake has a nice port job and just looking to let it breathe a bit more out the back if I can. This project is currently located in Virginia (long story) so anything shipped would be to Crozet VA 22932.

I've got a TU header, with >600 miles on it. It's drilled for both Chrysler and T3 flanges. Pm me if you're interested.
