Who wants a mopar turbo kit?!?!
I just went back through the thread again...do you think a set of the C body log style manifolds would work in a BB application?
Manifolds are a good option for most any turbo build. They are much better at resisting heat cracking then standard mild steel headers, and the turbo itself is usually a much smaller restriction then any manifold oultet anyway, so there usually isn't any power degradation at all.
That's exactly why I built these kits around the available truck manifolds. The magnum manifold only has a 1 7/8" primary, but that's been proven on my car to make nearly 900hp. The hot sides of my kit are built from 2" stainless steel to ensure fast spool up.
Regular headers would work, but I'm not sure there is any power to be had. Mild steel would certainly be a durability risk also (which most headers are built out of). Stainless headers are a good option, but they are a LOT more expensive then the exhaust manifolds in most cases.
If you already had a set of headers, they MIGHT work with the kit. But they would require the outlet to be in the EXACT same spot as the factory manifolds.
No dyno runs yet. We'll start at the track... proof is in the pudding then.
