Hmm... looking at it.. I'm going for this aldon thing.. except i'm far away from running a turbo just yet. It comes after arches, coilovers, bike carbs, inlet, polybush, braided brakes then turbo setup.
Orrrr I could try my ga16de turbo setup and let you know sooner ??

Thought sod it, il use k10 bogg bros mani as noone wanted to buy it
Matches pretty good, so drilled new holes
Gunna file out the bottom corner bits to match up as much as possible, there's quite a bit of meat left on the k10 mani so should get it pretty much bang on
Only thing I'm wondering is, the only part that's not gunna be smooth is the top section where injectors used to go
Can I file these points down to match the manifold better? Make it rounder?
How much metal is there, looks like a bit, but better ask before I dive in

there's quite a bit of metal as you say Pork, mine had been flowed & ported to add a smoother curve, had to do the opposite & take a little off the manifold as well!
Just a thought on the other side of the holes you have drilled can you still get a nut on the head studs ok?

Haha, well saying that, since I've found out, I'm well on my way in remodelling the whole place!!
Just finished ripping up old dog ridden carpets and laying wood floors throughout, started converting loft last year so, ginna finish that too to have more storage.
Gunna work my ass off now, so the last few months before she pops will be as stress free as possible and all work done.
Lucky having a job that finishes by 2-3 most days, so got few hours before she's hone to sort **** out.
Don't worry though, the micra will be completed too, just at a slower pace than normal

So 2 little nuggets of info for you about this aldon amethyst thing.
1. I'd recommend it... but I think they forgot its for a car... its not exactly water resistant. The base map isnt all that brilliant either. And dont plan to go above 14psi... it won't do it
2. They've dropped the price to 150 for now

Really? not even 1 bar? No wonder the price has dropped, but if you're happy with it the we're happy. Will be watching how you get on with with great interest
