what type of manifold? exhaust? I'm guessing that's what you are getting at, are you looking for something to work with a turbo? Custom built, as far as I know that's your only chance.

You could put a stock ZX3 exhaust manifold/header on it but why step backwards.?

I beleve besides custom all you have is the stock ZX3 header/manifold, stock SVT header, and aftermarket short and long tube headers.

What are you trying to do????

it's easier to run a turbo off from a manifold rather than a header...the zx3 i was told wont fit on the svt

You can get the exhaust manifold of the RS, that will fit up to the svtf.  I would probability be better and cheaper to just build a custom one.

I agree, it's going to be better to just build one custom, since there aren't any that I can think of anyways. The aftermarket people won't go backwards and make a manifold for an exhaust header that is already very very good.

just wondering... because the turbo kit that you had mentioned in one of my other posts has a manifold that comes with it...well it shows in the pic anyway... just not willing to spend 5800 for something that can possibly be done by myself... i was thinking of getting a manifold to make it easier for them to make the piping if you know what i mean...thanks though

I think Bat or euro parts sells the RS exhaust manifold, look there.

I have seen some turbo kits that use an aftermarket shorty header.

Also I have Toms kit and it is well worth the money, the quality is amazing, the performance is great and the realibility is super.  I have talked to alot of people with turbo foci and found that everyone who is running some other turbo kit has had problems, like blown head gaskets, warped heads, or complete engine failure.  Tom's kit is the only one out there that isn't going to give you problems.

Is the $1600 for Tom's manifold...and will it help a stock SVTF?  If so, I may get one just to save on the hassels...I wish Tom would travel to Maine and install my turbo.

1600 is the one off from the rs focus shipped from over seas... building one would be cheaper...i have a buddy over here that builds headers for just about everything
