Its listed as Mazda Protege 1.8L 323, but the head flange looks the same as the 2.0.


Anyone?

Hey whats up man. I'm also looking for a stock MSP 2.0 turbo manifold. I'm going to make an adapter plate for it so I can use a T3/T04e on my probe.

U got one laying around, or know of one.
Lemme know

hehe, Im doing the same thing with the stock N/A Protege manifold. It may be possible to do it with yours?? I dont know.

Be careful of OBX headers.Do a search on honda-tech.com, clubsi, etc

You will find ALOT of pictures of cracked and broken manifolds.The life expectency of those OBX headers are less than a year or 10,000 miles.

hmmm...i see, maybe they are using thin ss. I think they cant handle the weight and the heat together.

in terms of an n/a header, the obx works very well and i have never had one break however

 

[ozmojo1]

ive read A LOT of how much obx sucks BUT....will that manifold "made for the 1.8l" work on a 2.0?

 

[Mental Addiction]

No, there manifold is for a 1.8BP

Worst manifold design... ever. Plus the ad says: "The manifold is made out of SUS 304 Hi-Grade Stainless to help disperse heat", which is exactly what you DON'T want a turbo manifold to do. This is the same quality as SSautocrap and will break quickly.

The reason the OBXr headers don't crack is that they see lower temps and less strain/stress.

sorry to bring this thread back to life, but this one using the same pictures is listed as being for our cars.
