Try the user Boost Obsession. He probably does the best manifolds for the Holden engines

Yeah try either Boost Obsession or CAPA performance or Snort Performance. They all do Turbo/ supercharger kits and all bits inbetween for them.

Vr V6 Turbo
Have you thought of making your own manifolds? Ive almost completed mine with nothing but a grinder, drill, welder, and lots of patience and spare time, but i know they're how i want them.. Really depends on your time, budget and commitment. Total cost of steam pipe and bends has been $140, plus a few flanges added it up to just over $200 to complet my manifold from heads to turbo.... Sorry i forgot, i cut up my extractors for the header flanges, so you would have to add the cost of flanges to that estimate...

That's the go, I'm doing the same.
Still finishing the auto to manual conversion. Then I'll be onto the manifolds for the turbo arrangement.
I bought the 2 turbo's a while back for $150. TC06's. still need a couple of bits to complete.
I picked up a massive IC for $150 NEW from a performance shop in Newcastle. core size is 600x300x115mm. It's polished and all. :thumbsup:
Turbo's are oversized too.

Why not run the standard manifolds bolted backwards?

Boost Obsession would be my pic but he's very busy these days so it may not be in your timeframe.

ASE would be my next pick for simplicity and well thought out design but they need a tidy up with the die grinder first unlike BO manifolds

I did that on my Wagon, you have to slot bolt holes for the passenger side and cut off the standard flanges.. but they crack :yeah:

+1 for Boost Obsession manifolds.
