A customer in California called up and asked if we could build him a top mount kit with the new v-band tial housings, we said, “sure thing” well this is what morgan has been spending the last week on, enjoy… ![http://www.synapseturbo.com/gallery/cache/8dd65ce7417cc1cff2006b81820b35d30b2c0d6b_800.jpg](http://www.synapseturbo.com/gallery/cache/8dd65ce7417cc1cff2006b81820b35d30b2c0d6b_800.jpg) ![http://www.synapseturbo.com/gallery/cache/bafbfe1620f4f85c082a90b745af12bd14caaf95_800.jpg](http://www.synapseturbo.com/gallery/cache/bafbfe1620f4f85c082a90b745af12bd14caaf95_800.jpg) ![http://www.synapseturbo.com/gallery/cache/d49b24f1cfa25127e3c73d27ef07151273b30724_800.jpg](http://www.synapseturbo.com/gallery/cache/d49b24f1cfa25127e3c73d27ef07151273b30724_800.jpg) ![http://www.synapseturbo.com/gallery/cache/593325bd4241819887b43355dd4ba282b1593830_800.jpg](http://www.synapseturbo.com/gallery/cache/593325bd4241819887b43355dd4ba282b1593830_800.jpg) ---

Team Teal 2? It is a 3" downpipe, looks somewhat larger in the pictures though. I think alex is going to have Brooks make him his top mount tial manifold, but there will be at least 2 people this year with our setup in our local area this year possibly 3. ---

joe, the TiAL housings actually have a few benefits(slight performance benefit as well). the company that did my turbo setup has a cast Vband manifold for the 1.8T’s now for that housing, the turbing inlet actually flows better than the old .63 T3 housings, and being lighter, less stress on those tubular manifolds, no gaskets to worry about, ease of R/R no broken studs. sure more people are going to buy them because they look good, rather than those who care about them from a maintenance/performance standpoint… as we know Aesthetics is everything right :confused ---

Awesome work as always. I have one of the TiAL v-band manifolds (not top mount) on my evo and it’s amazing. Thumbs up to Synapse :thumb ---
