my first s2000 manifold and my 3rd manifold ever…i know there are places to improve, but if you guys wanna shoot up some positive or negative comments your more than welcome. i have been learning new things everyday while building these and i know one thing i really need to improve on is bead consisity. ![http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12064.jpg](http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12064.jpg) ![http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12082.jpg](http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12082.jpg) ![http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12086.jpg](http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12086.jpg) ![http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12092.jpg](http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12092.jpg) ![http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12088.jpg](http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p245/Acidz1/SDC12088.jpg) ---

Wow good job dude, looks like you already know what to work on (consistent bead). I like how you use V-bands, Overall it’s a very good job on the manifold 😃 ---

f20c’s are hilarious. Look @ those hoses haha. Does the turb just sit on that brace? ---

there is a brace holding the turbo to the block. ---

this is probably a stupid idea, but if you clocked the engine like 20 degres you would have a lot more room in that area. you would be able to have a much shorter manifold. hypothetically ---

did you just say to ‘clock the engine’? Even hypothetically that seems like the biggest headache in the world. I.e. No one should do that ever. ---

No no no…you want to clock the chassis in the opposite direction. 🙂 ---

Theoretically the only problem with clocking the engine would be tranny positioning… unless there are other components relying on the position of that slanty ass motor. Anyway clean manifold man, reminiscent of k-series manis. Although it does look like there is some room to drop the turbo behind the strut tower unless you ran into downpipe routing issues? Correct me if I’m wrong ---
