my supra was open scroll but my r33 is semi twin scroll, turbo is twin scroll gt40r and that in itself is now old news, and manifold itself is twin scroll but wastegate is a joiner, the response is noticably different and apparantly the effects of twin scroll are even better on 4 pots.

personally i wouldnt think twice about changeing that manifold, i think you would be pleasantly suprised at the gains you could get from a bigger turbo more top end power but still have the same or better response as your current set up.

Thats correct the bigger the Turbo the harder work it is to keep it on the sweet spot. I got to grips with it in the end but obviously 800 is not going to be as easy to drive as 500. The biggest improvement to my car would be a 4.1 diff it would make 5th into 4th etc & so much easier to drive. It would however drop the Topspeed from 217mph down to high 190's. I search ebay on a weekly basis as Jag did do that ratio but im told its hens teeth & diamond expensive but it may turn up.

ive got one of my parts suppliers trying to source me one of these now rod, if i can buy it through the company im gonna get one.
i dont suppose you know how similar the 9180 is to a gt40/42 do you, as in positioning on the manifold and clearance between the head and inner wing ? im very tight for room both ways with the gt40r.
