Just arrived today. These are the new exhaust manifolds made for turbocharged applications over 300hp. It should be noted there are NO off the shelf headers that will fit a turbocharged Monte Carlo. John "Turbo Monte" recommended CarTunings manifolds and as it turns out they are the best your going to get unless you have your own custom made. Kevin the owner of CarTuning special made these for my Monte as you may have noticed there are no attached exhaust flanges. We will have to add our own bent accordingly to properly align with my Monte's exhaust system and routing over the engine. So if your ever going to do a custom turbo set up on your Monte and make crazy power this is good to know info here. They are pretty huge, were going to flow a lot of air, Kevin says they are going to permit the new Borg Warner turbo to spool up quicker.

My Turbo sucked in what we believe to be a minute fragment from the ZZP powerlog as it became unstable due to our applying power in excess of ZZP's recommended 300 hp. They lasted about 3 years so they did have that going for them. Notice from the extreme heat the aftermarket heat coating peeling away from the power logs which also had their own coating still intact. We experienced mulitple cracks on the old manifolds. I will sell these ZZP Power logs for cheap if someone wants to weld them up, they should hold up at the ZZP recommended power levels.


Supported 700whp levels and never ever had a failure with any of his CarTuning manifolds. Very well constructed, angled down pipes into the collector for easy merging of exhaust gases for enhanced exhaust discharge enabling turbos to spool faster.











See how the Powerlog cylinder downpipe extends into the collector about 1/4". This disrupts air flow unlike the Car Tuning manifold which is flush welded and ported to insure maximum smooth air flow insuring much better spooling

 

Those cartuning pipes look like theyll definately hold up...
Talk about custom built!

 

Those are effin sweet dude!

 

Been waiting to actually see pics of these!! I will be getting them when I do my turbo upgrade as well! What did kevin charge you for them? Glad I could help steer you in the right direction!!

 

Nice Looking..

 

Very nice looking.

 

Very nice

 

My Lanta so beautiful those are nice man. He should look into producing them for sale not just custom I'd love to message him or get some made local off his design that's niceeeeee

 

hey thanks for the compliments. They do look so Bad Azz, just know they are going to move a lot of air, they are HUGE!!

Anyway they are local built for you as a shop in Canada is building them. He specially makes them for his Turbokits. Should you want a set he will custom make them for you built on you specs. He has about a 2 week turn around time for them, not bad and they are very well built. Look how they are all segmented together, this lets him weld each inside joint and beburr the welds and move on to the next segment, thus insuring a complete seamless project.

what was the price for them greg?
