So Erik totally spilled the beans....LOL Here's the newest "Update" right now on our Blog.. Plan is in motion, I promise I'll keep you guys up to date. Its always battle between current business (E46) and future business (E90 N54). The plan is to do the Twin Scroll setup with the Precision 6466 Ball Bearing Turbo from Precision.

I'll be the first as$hole to say it, that mani looks verrryyy similar to another brand of single turbo and since there is only one other current brand...

To be fair, how many different manifold designs can you make for an I6 with a cramped engine bay going to a single turbo?

The original manifold was designed to work with a Stand Alone or a Parallel Setup like in our E46 kits. Which is why you are seeing a second generation manifold. After realizing how far out the Infinity was we decided to speed things up with the piggyback that Vishnu makes. Everything since that point has been working towards using the piggyback system which needs independent O2 readings to work properly with the stock DME. More updates to come guys.
Also their are other ways to make this manifold but we didn't want to make it more complicated just to be different. Having both collector banks up top so you could change out the O2 sensors with ease was just a no brainer. ![]() |

Hidnsight is 20/20. Now that Vishnu/FFtec has shown everyone how it done it seems normal. Why didn't anyone else do it that way before? Why didn't you do place the O2 sensor up top on your last N54 mani? and didn't Vishnu/FFtec put a patent on their unique and functional design? |
