I was wondering what manifold i would have to use on my b18a1 engine in my 2nd gen. integra. I have a 14b turbo and im trying to get the turbo put on my engine but i cant find the right manifold to go with??? i would like some help
get a t3 flange manifold and then get an adapter plate. DO NOT GET A MANIFOLD WITH THAT FLANGLE ON IT!!!
OK… let me get this straight i would have to get a turbo manifold with a t3 flange an get an adaptr plate so that the 14b turbo will bolt to the adapter and the adapter is fixed to the t3 flange? ok doesnt the t3 turbo manifold have an external wastegate flange on it tho and the 14b turbo is internal wastegate??? so now what would i do??? thanx for the help maybe you can tell me where i could purchase this stuff at to because i have the turbo allready.
some do some dont, usually u can get them with or without, there is no one standard manifold.
I bought the DSm flanged headers off ebay… no complains… i cracked it at the coupler tho… I think it was my fault tho becuz of the downpipe i had… I rewelded them and no problem since… But I think wit the 14b ull realize you will wanna go bigger and better which usually means t3/t4 honda wise… So I would just aim for the adapter plate for now cuz youll be pissed like i am if your stuck wit DSM headers and you wanna get a big ass T3 instead of these dsm turbos. your call… headers were only 200 off ebay. no external wastegate flange neither.
def buy the adapter plate.
DO NOT BUY IT FROM EGAY!!!
buy a bullet proof externally gated cast iron manifold for a t3…
drag/revhard/inlinepro… soo many to choose from personally id go with the Blox being its a good sturdy design and at a good price.
If u do the right thing and get it externally gated u can easily throw a block off plate on it untill u upgrade to a t3/t4 t3… soo many things u would rather upgrade to that are nice w/o internally gated hotside…
- external wastegates sound/look and are sweetness… listen to these guys u wont regret it.
ya I retract that statement… Cracked them again today… musta jynxed myself good… Im gonna goto the custom turbo shop by me and get some custome ones done. If you cant do that go for the adapter plate.
where can the adapter plates be purchased?
u have to look for them.
try and go to homemadeturbo.com and ask people or make a thread about it.
i have seen sites with several varieties of them but cant find any now. that should help
I had to order an adapter plate from bmcrace.com. they dont actually have the correct one you have to use a t25 turbo to t3 manifold and your only able to use 3 bolts on the turbo. I talked to the guy if you call him he can custom make you one but it will take like 2-3 weeks. He said I should have a problem wit 3bolts as long as their tight. Many people have done it and havent had problems so Im goin this route… I order some meutek cast headers, the t25 to T3 plate and turbonetics wastegate. Well see how it goes this week. GL
you can get most log manifolds with pretty much any flange you want, why would you buy an adaptor plate? more shit to go wrong.
because no one buy a used b series log mani with a 14b flange on it. and…u cant upgrade your turbo.
id say jst get a bigger turbo with a t3 flange and scrap this whole idea
G2 Integra 217: why can you only use 3 of the 4 bolts with that adapter plate from bmc race? I just orded this same adapter and figured it would work fine.
Its too long to explain did u get the 14b to t3? cuz if so its not gonna work your gonna have to ship it back and get the t25 turbo to t3 manifold cuz they told me the wrong info. I can send some pics of what I did to use all 4 bolts.
i got the t25 to t3… could you send me pics to kimbenj@lycoming.edu id like to see them anyways i dont have any bolts yet but it seemed like everything lined up fine
edit: i just double check my invoice i got the t25 to t3 i think i should be fine
