Theoretically the only official ones available were from the GM C20GET engine. A 2.0 8vT engine used in chevrolets in the USA. Suitable for a Garret T25 turbo I beleive.

MVAUX were making them (a Brazilian company) but they went tits up & tbh not many kits made it to the UK as far as I'm aware.

The other option is to make your own or commission one from the likes of Beardy on Vauxsport. Budget ?5-600 though.

Or try & see if you ca get an adaptor plate made up to hang a turbo off the std GM 8v cast manifold.

[edit] maybe use an XE 16v head & cams & use a KKK turbo from std LET.

www.hg-motorsport.de/shop/index.php?cat=c75_Opel.html (http://www.hg-motorsport.de/shop/index.php?cat=c75_Opel.html) it a german website but they do cast ones for t3 or t25 i think

[meritlover]

just make your own.

cast manifold = crack tastic... although the front mounted ones seem to cope ok (its only when you dont flow air round them that they die fast)

[meritlover]

some cast manifolds are not that bad. most of the problems are due to design. ie no slotted bolt holes to allow for expansion. some fail but a lot are ok.

90% of Z22SE cast manifolds fail... good effort GM lol

[meritlover]

there are more manufacures of cast manifolds (turbo and NA) than just GM. and they are just fine.
GM=BAD
