On a side note.....what manifold is that, it doesn't look custom, looks like a stock piece. Reason is because of the heat sheild studs on it, who takes the time to weld in heat shield studs when you can attach it a much easier way.
It kills me that people turbo a stock beams engine. Granted, it can handle up to about 260, but they always want more, and blow the engine. Just baffles me. If your gonna spend the time turboing somthing, do it the right way and get some beefy internals.

hmmm... bout the part list... i try to get contact with few of my Altezza owner friends... if they have it in hardcopy... may be i can scan it... but chances r slim...
the turbo manifold... really confusing...
how many stud does BEAMS exhaust ports have?! i have checked on my friend's ST205 engine (he is the only 1 have that under his ST183 front hook)... it has 8 stud... 3rd gen has 7... refer to the TRIAL's ST202... it is a stock manifold...
i dont have any intention to turbo charge my BEAMS... but would like to have 270hp NA motor like the fully built-up BLACK TOP since my RED TOP's head is leaking...
also if standard ST202 n ST205 parts r interchangable with BEAMS... then i dont have a problem to get any spareparts...
