    I think I would go with a stock square port exhaust manifold that you match the ports to gasket with and go from there after ceramic coating it.  If you want to go for max power equal length headers are ok, but I've seen tests on turbo cars and using cast exhaust manifold weren't much of a liability and provided better low end.

    I think the protunerz intake was an opportunity to make something extremely sexy and perform well, but the intake runners look like home depot pipe, then the rest looks fine.  But it could have been amazing.  

    I think tubing is tubing and what's done on the ends in the enum make a difference...

     

    If it works then that's it.  I'd rather have performance over looks and I don't like the angles I saw for the first cylinders.

    Sad, that is 10x better looking then the protunerz. 

    I don't think so, and it looks like it would have 1st cylinder air distribution problems compared to ProtunerZ's...

    We are fine with you doing what your doing. Shoot I'm happy for you. Those components sound great. But why be so negative towards those of us who would rather spend money differently. I bought my whole car for 500 bucks. I am financially stable and I still try to build my car as cheap as possible. Its just what I like to do. This is a cool idea to get Auto trans control.

    I'm not negative in any way - shoot, I'm all for saving a buck - more do than most because I had to retire early for health/disability reasons.  I ask questions and make statements but don't judge - some of us are here to learn and share knowledge.  I honestly didn't know the OP got the PCM very cheaply as it wasn't in his original post.

    I have the ATI trans adapter kit and lockup torque converter (9") along with MS3Pro and MicroSquirt for my '83 ZXT.

     

    Currently waiting to paint engine compartment prior to installing engine, transmission and upgrades including ported and ceramic coated exhaust manifold, Protunerz intake and even larger upgraded turbo.

     

    Have had health issues.

    Thanks - I think I will be using my stock turbo exhaust manifold and rout the output from the turbo under the engine to go forward through the radiator support to a cross flow intercooler and have the cooler air back thru on the intake side to my Protunerz intake.  Looks like I should have no problem...
