It doesn't look at all like my stock manifold.

That's not sleeper's car. It's not even a contour, it's a cougar.

BBorges! Two things! I want links to the kits and second, I would start talking to Mondeo.org and see what they say about the differences between the 1.8 vs the 2.0 in design. If it is $500, I am going to save a few checks up!

Seawulf! All I can say is ww! That is awesome! Did you fab the manifold or was that designed by someone...do tell all the info...

Here I will start it for you

"Once upon a time......." LOL

Do tell

500bux for a turbo? Kids, it's on!

$500 will barely buy the turbo itself (unless of course, they're selling a kit with a 200k mile junkyard turbo), much less a kit...do more research.

My friend, if you had read my first post you would noticed that this is something I am buying overseas (not here in the USA).

It takes advantage of dollar exchage, which it is approx 3-to-1. I mean, you have heard about Free Trading, right ?? Killing jobs all over factories in the USA ?? So that is it, if the gov is pushing the free trade (and I guess they don't care about workers at home) why would I care ?? I'll shop for the cheapest.


The kit is selling for approx R$1,400 which is approx $500. And the turbos are KKK or Garret...


I could not call them and ask about the contents of the kit and about the manifolds. I am still contacting them thru emails but that takes time. I wanted to call them this weekend but I didn't have time.

The biggest problems I see are: installation & engine management.


by the way:

has anyone heard of CMRacing or UniCHIP ???

The first is a "box" that controls ignition timing and the extra fuel injector (if added). the second is a south african chip that is made for turbo cars.
