Greetings PH'ers...

Naturally Mr Whalley is no longer with us, I was wondering if there is anybody producing the steel pipework for a turbo kit, or indeed a turbo kit without the turbo? Or am I doomed to spend an age in the garage with the tig welder?

Just spitballing and looking to see what's what...

I'm just starting developing my kit ... development car in next week. Will be a while until the spec is nailed but already got 3 people interested.

'Naturally not with us'. Don't you mean sadly?

Eann had a guy that welded the manifolds and had the jig to do so. Maybe someone will know who this guy is. I assume he would have been relatively local to where Eann lived in Warrington.

Only particularly interested in manifolds I'm afraid Joolz. I'm playing around with costs to see the routes of developing my own turbo system based around an EFR, an SC Power conversion (expensive), and grabbing an LS on the internet.

Interesting... It certainly wasn't Clive as I have spoken to him for a manifold and downpipe, but he made no reference to making them for Eann. Almost certainly I need a different flange on than a T4 but I'm capable of sorting that part.

I'm certain you got my point.
