Default Performance exhaust manifold 850r

I'm looking for a performance exhaust manifold for a Volvo 850 r so I got a better choice of turbochargers.

I'm finding turbocharger choice quite limited does anybody know anywhere that can fabricate a different exhaust manifold to allow fitment of different turbochargers in the limited space of a right-hand drive car.

Any help would be appreciated.

I already have a Japan manifold fitted on the vehicle

What turbo set you going for? At some point I'll be making a custom manifold for my t5.

I am hoping I can run a side winder turbo manifold running a hks t51r turbo.

Hi there.

I'm open to choice for the turbocharger at the moment the k26 was my first choice but apparently thry a really hard to come by and also there's better options apparently on the market.

The issue I'm finding is trying to find a manufactured manifold.

I want the vehicle to do 420bhp or more due to the other upgrades that I'm putting on it.

I was looking at focus upgraded manifolds but don't know if I've got the clearance

420 is a decent amount of power I'm assuming your going to forge your block and go to the 2.4 t5 bottom end?

Have you tried looking into vast tunning? They are based in the states and have various tubular manifolds.

Give them a shout
