ok so a few months ago i got one of the turbo manifolds from ebay. welds arent too bad and looks like it will hold well. but as i started looking at it a lil more i had seen that it looked like the turbo flange was not facing the right way. put it up to a head i had laying around and then put the turbo on it(not the right flange ether but ez fix) and what do you know, it was made so that if it was the right flange it would have the down pipe running start in to the head, which would have the compressor side right on the finder. so i got some one to cut the flange off and up an old flange form the stock log style manifold on. works fine. you will need to get some kind of SS line for the return line cuz the ebay turbo manifold dose raze the turbo up a lil(its more or less a top mount now) but i had no prob shutting the hood. do notice a lil better pick up from the turbo. dont think its anything really great but may help with high HP motors. better flow of the gasses and less of the force wasted cuz its tube style.

did you put a CT26 on the SS MANI? its a T4 footprint not Meant to fit the CT26 im not following ya clearly
so, what are u asking for?
What turbo do u have? Normally it shouldn't touch the hood nor make any problems with that

... i put a CT26 on an XSpower T4 tubular manifold. it ran pretty strong and sounded slightly JZ-ish.
yes i used the stock ct26. and i think you asking some thing about the stainless steel return lines? just fab some lines and your good to go.
likr i said it felt like the tubo started to spool a lil sooner but nothing that amazing. im sure if you had a high hp powert car it may make more of a diffrents. i dont think ill dyno mod at a time. too much money.
