You could weld up a homebrew manifold for under 200 quid, well under 100 quid if you have shit kicking around already...no it wont be textbook designed / perfect etc, but meh, its not going to make big enough differences to justofy the 2k...get turbo from another vehicle on ebay for cheap, oil lines made up for under 20 quid, boost hoses / intercooler for under 200 tops, really not that expensive when you man up and figure it for yourself, instead of silly charger kits etc....
Yeah I wouldn't buy the kit. Don't need all new parts. Just thought if they had premade manifolds, it might make my life easier!
Management will be coming soon as its something I need for future mods. Shouldn't be too expensive as the loom I can make my self and to start with, I will use the base map until I'm ready to bolt cams in and bolt a turbo on.
