Another single turbo option

Docrace single turbo twin scroll. Ordered mine without turbo. Already had 6766. Comes with lots of goodies

Wow that is sexy...I would love to replace my twinscroll n55 turbo with a 6466! Can't wait to see the end results.

I don't think this one is compatible with n55.

Not wild about the WG position but otherwise looks quality. DOCrace does good work.

Kit looks nice, congrats! Going with PI, I assume?

I too thought the WG position was odd, but reading more on their website it appears they designed it this way to be "out of the heat". Seems to me it wouldn't help much.

Why aren’t any of the top mount manifolds (from what I've seen) using a brace of some sort? With the heat, weight of the turbo, and angle the pipes are at, I would worry a little about cracking. Any thoughts?

My concern is more about the angle of the WG to the runner, and the fact that both gates appear to be positioned before the merge collectors. Seems odd to me that you'd place the WG on a specific runner rather than post-merge.

The kit is pretty heavy. I will weight it later today. Just got my turbo housing. Pretty sure if kit cracks ect they would own up to it. They have tons of manifolds for m3 similar design running 1000hp and no cracking. My goal is 650 with 93 and meth.

It's tough with this car to put waste gates in ideal position being how little room we have. In my opinion the best placement I have seen was from the fftec bottom mount. They placed it on the actual exhaust housing.

Looks good all together! Curious about the weight.

What other top mount manifolds did you look at before buying this one? I know JPWorks has the WGs up top, jw if you considered that one and why you didn't go with it.

It looks like the kit is now for sale. Makes me nervous about getting this kit.
