Twin scroll manifold/turbo on vr4..

Hey probably massive newbie question but looked everywhere but uncertain of finds, will the twin scroll turbo and manifold be a direct fit on my E39A or will the feed/return lines be different.. I have a new turbo outlet to suit too..
Cheers..

Nevermind, forgot your car was RHD.

Good Questions I want my Extra Evo 10 turbo to fit my gvr4. I am thinking about having a custom manifold made.

THE twin scroll turbo?
Evo 4-9? Yes, it would bolt up if you removed everything on the cam belt side of the motor.
Evo 10? No, different manifold to head bolt pattern.
Twin scroll aftermarket turbo with suitable manifold to fit VR4? Yes.

I still don't understand why nobody has made a twin scroll mani to put an EvoX turbo on a DSM. Spool of a s16g but tons more power, and unlike the 3-9, it's pointed the right way. If FP makes a cast DSM manifold, why don't they make one for that setup?

 

Won't jus the air intake be on the other side? And yes it's a evo 7 set up..

The intake will face the alternator/power steering pump and the exhaust will exit out by the front engine mount/transmission area. It can be done, I've seen T3 setups flipped like that, but not without moving a lot of components.

 

I'm pretty keen to make it happen, I'm thinking twin sided fmic with custom piping, and intake.. Look out of place but different I guess..
I got all the evo stuff cheap as so it's worth giving it a shot!

At least two companies do this - Revspeed and someone else - made to order for about $800USD

Yes, it would look cool and you can get the parts cheap enough, but getting it all to work quickly becomes uneconomic, unless you can do all the fab work yourself.
For $1000USD you could get any one of Forced Performance's custom bolt on turbos, which put out 51-65 lbs/min /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

 

My mates a kick ass fab, he builds some pretty cool stuff, jus finished a motorised car tilt trailer so hopefully should be able to hook something up! When I start I will post progress and hopefully show people what we've done!

No worries. Cheers heaps!

What turbo setup are you going to go with if you go twin scroll?

 

[onesickcrx]

So is the issue that since its RHD exhaust manifolds different?

 

It's a standard evo 7 set up, the difference is everything is opposite to the vr4, the inlet is the other way and the outlet faces the ground. The dump is also the other way round so the 02 sensor, feed and return lines will need adjusting along with everything else.. Was wanting to see if anyone has done this before..

interesting....

The Evo 9 turbo is too large, but the Evo 7 turbo may *just* fit in the gap between the head, radiator, bonnet and top of the current manifold (basically where the upper intercooler pipe runs) if you flip the evo manifold upside down and make a head/manifold adaptor.
That's a big may, and a big just though /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jawdrop.gif

 

What if I made an adaptor plate for the manifold/turbo to spin the turbo the right way..
