yes I'm really pleased with it.

I'm thinking of getting a new flange on it though as mine is a 9stud head, and this was fashioned on the earlier 6 stud heads. I also want to get some bracing put through it just to be safe.

All still a long way off though, but those are my plans.... I think

Is this for your Toyota? It would appear you have dropped the CT26 for some kind of Garrett turbo and a 38mm gate. What do you have planned?

Indeed it is.

I will be running the stock in & ex. manifolds, and the stock CT26 while I run in the engine, but I will then be swapping them out for this manifold, a big side feed inlet manifold and 75mm throttle body, and a Garrett GT35R turbo!

Should be quite impressive once its all fuelled/mapped etc. Still seems like such a long way off though at the moment.

I like the look of that Ant, looks very well made: A split in the mounting flange for expansion and a proper pyramid collector inside too. Nice!
