these are the new Bimmer Twinky Turbo manifolds & dump pipes we have finally finished

stay tuned as we`re in the process of making a manifold for the 5-port turbo now too, (no baulk head mods)

:-)

Ben is the man for these.

he has made a few for Ausmini members i believe.

Matt, how many times have you used this turbo?
i'm thinking of taking this off mine and going back tot he T2 i used to run with .49 comp and .49 turbine housings.
