yeah... could someone clarify for the noobs? also, it seems like some peoples manifolds are reversed, do you just simply unbolt it, turn it, and bolt it back on, or does it involve other modifications... im not planning to do any of these things but im just curious.

Piping is shorter thus reduced lag, but for bigger turbos such as the GT35R its very hard to fit into the standard position without reducing the inlet as the manifold gets in the way. Easier to rotate it.

Reversed manifolds can just be flipped around as they bolt up exactly but thats where the ease dissapears. U need to change throttle cables etc, if u want to retain aircon then u need to make the piping go around etc.. Have to make sure that the piping dosent hit the bonnent, need to modify the bracket for the alternator.

Basically alot of work and cost comes in as man hrs not so much parts...

Tino whats that silverish canaster looking thing attached to the firewall with 4 hoses come off it? Looks amazing, but wtf was going on when they welded up that ic piping? (looks like they just mixed matched little peices of aluminum together to make it)

Thats the oil / air separator (soon to be replaced with something a bit more appealing).

The IC piping was hand made, the workshop decided to create their own angles (some like it others dont)..

There are quite a few nice setups here I'd never seen before. I really like the reverse manifold w/ V mount "ish" setups.
