Pretty much self explanatory.

For size reference sake thats an M30 w/ GT40R and 3.5" tubing. Pics/pricing of the manifold will be available after the holidays.

Cheers :beer:

Is the top-mount the only option? I was kinda hoping it was going to be a bottom mount like todd's, unless there's an advantage to the top-mount?

There isn't enough room to mount a turbo that size any lower than that. He's got it up above the main frame rail for clearance.

Least that's what it looks like.

Well...most people run GT35's or T04's bottom-mount on the TCD manifold I was gonna run a big GT30, so size isn't an issue.

Size isnt really an issue since as you said most people run a moderately sized turbo. When I build a manifold I like to mock it up with the largest turbo someone might use. Its just another option since a fair number of people have expressed interest in a stainless tubular manifold that can use common tangential turbine housings.

all I was asking is if there may be a bottom-mount tubular manifold in future lineup, thats all.

There may be someday. I get the most requests for top mounts so thats the priority. Im always looking to add new designs/applications so who knows.

Is there enough room for a RHD steering box under there?

There's plenty of room. The turbo manifold does not hang any lower than the stock exhaust manifolds. Once its all finished I will get some pics from underneath the car.
