Looks like a very promising build!!! Looking forward to see how you make your V-Mount.
I am heavily leaning towards the Full-Race manifold to help keep the weight down low and avoid the need for a scavenging pump.
Which Rad will you be using?
Will you be runing a vented hood?
What made you chose that Manifold?
Was it a size constraint to be able to run a EFR turbo with IWG?
If you skim the thread, you'll probably find the answers to all your questions.
- It's and SoS kit. It comes with its own 2-pass radiator and the V-mount setup can be seen on their site.
- Yes
- Nothing out there met the requirements I had so I had a custom manifold made.
- The [EFR] turbo itself is big, and even longer with an IWG. Turbo placement is a little different than a more typically used turbo.
Great start, so what Aero are you going with on the car
Our V mount looks similar but its more in house. Using a bigger radiator has worked for us so far. Kept the factory fan as well. When do you plan on her being ready?
What are your thoughts on the size of that Radiator from the SOS kit?
I would be tempted to create some shrouds on each side of the V to force all incoming air into either the IC or Rad...
What clutch are you runing?
Any mods to your Diff/rear end?
Hard to say without any testing, but it looks like it'll be able to keep up. I was already planning on making shrouds to keep the air from wasting around. I have not decided on a clutch yet and the differential is stock.

Still TBD on what I do for aero. No deadline set on this car as I've got too much else going on that I would bust any deadline I'd set.
Still making messes, but almost everything is out, to include the A/C. Also sending the manifold out to ATP to get the Inconel heat shield treatment.
I did test fit the SoS intercooler and it doesn't line up very well. A little disappointed with this. I'll have to notch the holes more than they already are from SoS.
