And I've just sent compressor housing off for welding up. What would you sell your turbo for?

Yeh, and I think they even do manifolds for REW swapped rx8s like yours

Well a turbo and manifold aren't cheap at all

Me 2 i work with an ex navy engineer who is a fantastic welder fabricator and tool maker who can make anything on a lathe or mill...im just a sparky mind.
If we opened up a fab shop im sure we would succeed! But then you have people issues!!!

Oh no, that amount is the total for manifold  and the turbo and other bits.

The manifold on its own is 900 dollars

The rx8 engine BAY, aswell as my mx5 just isn't that wide compared to an FD and FC RX7.

TURBLOWN offer a top mount manifold and a low mount but there's no picture of the low mount manifold

Running the IWG EFR turbo helps you on space constraints for sure

If you can squeeze a 3.5" exhaust in compared to a 3" from what iv been reading you will pick up some hp with an IWG turbo set up, think its down to reducing the back pressure in the exhaust sytem
