Gotcha. Well thank you for the input! I appreciate it! Good luck with your build!! Hopefully someone is using a top mount set up and I can find some things out lol

Thank you! And yeah, I will be upgrading the injectors, and the fuel pump will be upgraded when I find a 75 280z gas tank. The oil pump was already on the list, but I didn't even think about the cooler, so thank you for that! That will save some headaches down the road. I was looking at the holset turbos. I don't mind a little lag. Both offer the power I am looking for. I will just have to keep looking around and decide when I am possitive. My goal was to not have to do much to the bottom end though. While the motor is out, I will be replacing the head gasket, water pump, timing belt, etc... But I didn't want to do anything to the bottom end. I feel like 350whp (400 max) should be fine on stock internals right? And as far as the manifold goes, that raw brokerage one was the main on I was looking at, it's just so pricy . Are you using a top mount set up?

So now that I am pretty sure I know how to use the website, I will give this one last attempt. Sorry for the spam I may have caused by trying to post a new topic from my phone. I now will only be using my computer to post lol. I just picked up my Rb25det series 2 for my 240z build. I want to upgrade the turbo and I want a top mount set up. My goal is around 350-400 whp. I want to use the garrett gt3076r turbo, but am open to other suggestions. My main issue is trying to find a decent turbo manifold to use. I DO NOT want to use an ebay manifold like the Cxracing manifold because I have heard bad reviews. (I would like good reviews if people have had experience using them however) I know that the strut tower causes some issues as well. Any suggestions for working around that? I would ideally like to spend around $1000 for a decent top mount manifold. Is going with a custom one the best route? or can anyone explain to me what setup you are using? I have tried searching, but can't seem to find exactly what I am looking for. Thanks in advance!!
