Just finished building a stainless manifold for my buddies Toyota Tacoma, figured I would share with you all.
T3/T-04E .57/.48
38mm Tial Wastegate
3" DP now
Supra 440cc Injectors
W58 Supra Trans
6 puck clutch
STOCK TUNE lol
The OLD manifold:


The Truck:

The start:

Getting ready to weld:

Welded up:




In the truck and ready to roll: NOTE the dryer tubing is just temporary. Waiting on some Aluminum bends and some silicone couplers to come in so we can finish up the intake side

Truck is a blast to ride in. He said it runs mid 13's IIRC on his old setup but with no traction at all. Almost makes me want to pick one up and throw a turbo setup together for myself.

Awesome job of doing it yourself, did you use an acetylene torch to take off the turbo from the old manifold!!
The angle of the primaries for number 1 and number 4 cylinders scare me a little though. Let us know how she does!!

sweet! I used to have a TRD supercharger on my v6 taco and wifes 4-runner. They were still slow but alot better than stock. I never got far enough with it to add fuel though. i think it was before they had the 7th injector for them. Nice work btw!

When I clicked on the thread and saw those first pics I was like......wow, what a piece of **** this guy just built. lol
Nice work, header looks good, nice fab skills and welds look good. What filler rod did you use?
