Hey Ron, Im not sure if your aware but RMR has a billet head flange for thejt2ma71 said:And a sneak peak at my intake, I almost forgot I had these parts sitting in the garage This is just a mock up of how they will be positioned.

2JZ that matches those billet oval velocity stacks. They used to have them listed on there ebay store for $400 including a nice billet fuel rail and brackets. Ive been thinking about buying one myself for my next intake.

No offense Seth
PS: Call me later today if you get a chance before you head to work Ron.

mattjk said:everything is tacked together...then you remove the pipes from the head flange and collector, then you can weld it all up. When that's done you put it all back together.
Common practice when building headers... but maybe Ron has some other technique.
the 6 into 1 turbo collectors are $600+. I would Hope Ron charges more than $1500 for the manifolds because I know there is well over $1K in material. Rons manifolds are the Full-Race equilivalent in the MK3 world :naughty:soapra said:I'm sure Ron wont find offense to this but If someone asked me question on how to put something like this together I dont see why it would matter to tell them what to buy.
The flange and collector that Ron uses is from Burn's Stainless and it retails for more then what most people would spend on a manifold. they start at $393 and go up to $430+++ depending on size and options. The type of collector is called a Double slip turbo collector. From all the parts that I see on that manifold I wouldn't be to far off to say that the price on that manifold once you add labor is well over $1500 dollars. Exellent work as always Ron, but there is always one thing that you can't have anyone duplicate and that is the craftmanship and quality of your welds. If you have any issues with me posting this LMK.

Here's what I did early today. Welded the 6 egt bungs on.
And what I might work on in the morning, mount the 4" burns muffler. See it here with the old 3.5".
