IMO spend the money on a better flowing manifold right from the start. I have a log right now and wish I could go back and just have went with the tubular setup.

Oh and fullblown or inlinepro are both good kits you cant go wrong with either.

 

Incorrect. Both of these kits will make similar power if the user so chooses. The InlinePRO manifold is a virtually unbreakable cast iron piece that will outlast all others. Either of them will also fuction on a safer level with a thicker head gasket at high boost levels(on a stock motor), although it is not required. I believe it all boils down to preference since I have used both and am very pleased with each

 

I've had the IP stage 1 for about 5 years, I'm making 410whp @ 10.5lbs w a gt35r and stock head gasket. Haven't had a lick of trouble w/it, I've considered upgraging to the stage 2 but 410 seems to be enough for me right now for a summer car. Did a comp check last year, was over 220 on all cylinders and within 5% overall. I have an Ultimate Race dual 3" exhaust also. I certainly wouldn't worry about gettint the IP kit, it's been great but I haven't had anything else to compare it with and at the time the choices were a little more limited.

 

I was on an inline pro stage 1 set up with a 6265 jb turbo. I could only make 360 max before I seen knock. I was at 16 psi and was at 103% duty cycle on my rc 750cc Injectors.

Im now on a sidewinder set up with the same turbo, e85 and fc2150cc Injectors making 500 HP on 15 psi.

You will make 100hp more on a sidewinder at the same psi as a log. Do not go log!!! The back pressure from that log is really bad and you will have to buy a greedy spec b turbo controller to control the boost spike that log will give you. The inline pro log is set up to run a 38mm wastgate... It's to small for the flow our cars put out.

Do it right the 1st time and buy a sidewinder!!!!!

Inline pro has some great kits and they do hold up but if your going inline ... Just get there stage 2 kit.

 

do u have access to corn?

 

I would HIGHLY recomend that you look into PTuning. This is the closetst thing you can buy to a complete kit that will even come close to the power you would like to make.


Rear some of my builds below and you will get an idea of what is takes to put in the IP kit.

 

Another vote for LJ at Full Blown.

 

LJ hands down! Awesome customer service which is very important in the long run.

 

If the budget allows, I would go with a Sidewinder manifold instead of a log.

I pieced my kit together using the InlinePro log manifold and if I were to do it again, I would've gotten a Sidewinder manifold.

Sidewinder Pros:
-Extreme efficient design/Makes a lot more power at lower boost levels
-Easy to work on the motor/turbo kit
-Less likely to have to relocate battery (which caused me a lot of issues with a slow cranking motor/Stat Sync issues on AEM)
-Do not have to relocate oil filter (less likely to cause oil leaks or drop in oil pressure)

 

lj ftw. fbm

log is fine for those goals, but i would recommend sidewinder.
