20vt Header

[Richard Hoffman]

Another question: This manifold is designed to replace the stock manifold
and keep the stock turbo in the same location.  Why?  It would seem that the
K24 turbo can be brought to the limit of its efficiency with a simple chip
and wastegate spring.
I suppose for those looking to upgrade to the RS2 turbo it would make sense,
but doesn't that modification also require changes in oil/water lines?  I am
not sure on that one.
How does this manifold compare to the RS2 in cost?

My 100LS is not quite in showroom condition - needs a little work to get
there - it is a great all-original car that is still undergoing a
"freshening up" - it sat for many years and naturally a lot of the chassis
components are worn/sagging/rusted/frozen...but it is quite a neat car!  I
have only heard of 3 other 2-doors in North America, I would love to see
pics!
Merry Motoring!
