So i bought a new tig welder and wanted a project so have decided on welding 2 good halves of a phase 1 manifold together to make a wrc rip off for cheap

As i can cut weld and bodge what i like id prefer to remove the standard iacv and fit a newage tb with it all built in

I have an alcatek so easily adapted but unsure on which version to go for v5/6 or newage one

Unsure of what will be more easily adapted???

Any recomendations?


Obviously still needs work but you get the idea

Going to mill top out and plate and depending on the tb that people recommend i msy be anle to slightly increase the plenum size

(Clearly have too much time on my hands)

 

Decided to clock turbo/try out a project thread while im at it

Fitted a forge actuator to td05-20g while at it as this was weak and holding back power previously

Was not planning on doing this work together but ecu having upgrade and i had a leaking manifold gasket so why not?!

 

Getting there

 

Using a v7 throttle body that iv machined a plate for to convert from classic to newage
