I need to look into fabing my own DP adaptor. Looking for options and prices. Looking for something similar to this. Also id like to look into Log or tubular manifolds and what that would cost. ![http://lh6.ggpht.com/_qz3b_rdkMWA/SSUaJ081q6I/AAAAAAAAACA/VEq-bSfNaUE/s640/IMG_0052.JPG](http://lh6.ggpht.com/_qz3b_rdkMWA/SSUaJ081q6I/AAAAAAAAACA/VEq-bSfNaUE/s640/IMG_0052.JPG)

I was thinking more along the lines of stainless steel. An aluminum dp in western NY sounds scary.

Are you looking to do this to save money? Or because the part doesn’t exist. If it’s the latter, fine. But it’s probably going to be pricey for a nice part. If it’s the former, that’s not how it works.

So in other words a custom mani/ dp adaptor would cost more than 700. I was just checking my options. Most decent manifolds weither they be log or tubular start; log from 400 and the tubular go all the way up too 700-1200. adaptors are around 400-500. If I can get it done cheaper with a quality weld and decent material why not. If not, then I’ll just drop the 2000 for this decent kit I found excluding the turbo.

If you really need to FAB something that isn’t currently available, talk to this guy:

Kinetic motorsport. In the past they’ve been iffy with their older kits but this kit is good for the money. This kit has some great reviews except for the turbo thats why I’ll just be getting the hardware. Id rather a tubular exhaust mani but for the money this kit is great.

The torque steer I’m not too worried about but thanks.

Just get the garret turbo from Clay its better than the rotomaster than is the stock one with that kit. The garret is only $100 more also.

+1 Clay at CTS

? 100 I didn’t know that. I just figured it would be way more because they usually run around 1200 for the gt28rs being that its dual ball bearing.
