Civic winter turbo setup

[ZEX350Z]

@danl

That SSAC manifold will last you 2 weeks. Maybe a whole month if you brace the turbo. I told my friend that and he wouldn’t listen. Then he parted the car out after reparing the manifold twice and warrantying it once. Should’ve just gotten a cast one from drag or a HF manifold with the adapter if your on a budget.

EDIT:

We made 206whp at 6psi so be careful. If your on a stock motor and what any kind of reliability more boost than that may cause a problem even though I’m well aware 300whp has been made on the stock internals. I’m just saying pump gas, no knock sensor, and boost creep and boom. If you don’t care about the dime a dozen d16 then by all means push it.

I’m aware of the crap quality of the manifold. I plan on having it reinforced as good as I can. In the event that it does crack, I will switch to a cast manifold. Thanks for the precautions on running boost on stock internals…I’m quite aware of the consequences. I only need 6 months out of it till the accord is back out in the spring. I have faith the z6 will hold w/ a good tune @ less than 10 psi.
