Ok, heres the problem.
There are loads of us out there, who are either running a turbo, or want to run a turbo. but are either having problems with or are scared away because of having to make there own exhaust manifold.
I know it gave me the fear, and i know mine is sapping horsies, that could be used.
Same story with the downpipe, DIY again, and no doubt wasting power.
Well, I have a cunning plan.
I am running a garrett T2, which has the same exhaust inlet flange size as a t25 and t28 (cool eh?) well, I was wondering what i could use from any of the cars that commonly use either of these.
The s13 200sx (or 180sx overseas) uses a t25 as standard on the ca18det engines. so i looked it up on our old auction friend EBAY. there is a company called SS Autochrome that make the most beutyfull manifold ive ever seen. downpipe looks good too. check it out.

Ok i know it will fit the turbo fine, but what about the head side. Well, it souldnt be that difficult to cut the 200sx flange off, and weld on one that would fit the micra.
Oh yea, the manifold and down pipe are as cheap as iv ever seen.
any input?
