Right,

The saga continues.

I am looking to get a HKS T04S tub.

Does this manifold look any good ?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MAZDA-RX-7-RX7-FD3S-STAINLESS-STEEL-EXHAUST-MANIFOLD_W0QQitemZ180030886418QQihZ008QQcategoryZ36680QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

And will it matter that it is single exit when the tub has the dual port setup ?

Also, what sort of wastegate will I need for that (any particular size) as I don\'t know much about them.

Cheers.

You need a 42mm+ wastegate \'V\' bands are better than bolt on flanges. Dont know about the manifold, they need to be quite heavy duty as some of these have been known to crack, usualy best to go with a \'known\' make.

the manifold will work but be prepared to modify it and strengthen it. I used one initially but then went on to a HKS cast one.

As per the RHD link. I quickly realised it would be worth getting a cast one, although heavier will be a lot stronger and therefore more reliable which is what I want.
