How are your manifolds holding up? Just got mine this week. I was kinda curious about the turbo flange bolt hole going all the way through to the inside of the exhaust port. Never seen a manifold do that and was worried it may leak from there...
Got the manifolds and larger turbine exhaust adapters from Full Race yesterday. Shop has started the install. Might get tuned if the shop reports that the turbos are a in good condition.
These are on my Transit. I did not notice a difference other than my exhaust does not leak. My van is heavily modified and is easily at 500 crankshaft horsepower now.
Haven't had the warping issue like the stock units so I am happy. I have a host of power mods so I can't say these made a huge difference by themselves.
I have the SPD turbo adapters and these manifolds for more than 15,000 miles. No issues. Finding a tuner is damn near impossible nowadays and the guy that was tuning it screwed it up so I'm looking for new turbos and a new tuner. Full potential has yet to be realized. I did get 380 rwhp and 493 lbs/ft at the wheel though. Stock internal, 350,000 mile engine with 130,000 mile turbos.
@@jghall00I'll look into them. A local guy was going to help but I'm tired of waiting. New Garrett Powermax soon to be added as well to replace worn stockers.
The studs break all the time cause of the design, check out the BD Diesel manifolds on my channel they have 3 more stud locations and are port matched as well the stock 3.5 heads have 11 stud locations but only use 8 for the manifolds its dumb the turbo is alot of weight hanging on the end especially when you start making power and the motor moves when torque is applied with the exhaust bolted to the back of the turbo a really puts stress on those studs

Unleashed Tuning has done amazing work to mine.
@@chillislives Does unleashed have a tune suitable for both performance and towing? MPT has one listed on its site, so I was going to go that route.
@@jghall00 Unleashed actually tunes your vehicle versus just a canned tune. They can give you what you want.
Need an update when install is completed. Been out for months and no post install reviews.
I'll see what I can do. These should cure the issues of warping! Really beefy.
What did you put them on? And did you feel any noticeable changes?

Nice, been thinking on putting these on a 14 Tremor

How are they holding up? Did you do the turbo adapters too?

@@chillislives ZFG, unleashed, and MPT are well spoken of.

I wanted steel manifolds, not iron, less weight to hang off of the studs.
Full Race, going strong with the big power.
