Very nice. Sure beats modifying a LHD kit and placing the O2 sensors post turbo means you don't need to spend another $1000 on the ADV ones to handle the heat and pressure. They've also designed it for ease of fitment which is not something that happens often. If you get it please take a lot of pics of the installation!! What turbo are you going with?

I bought a 6266 gen 2 bb ar .84 and 7675 gen2 bb ar .81. Both t4 flanges.
I thought the 6266 bb gen 2 with a small ar would suit the Australian n54 community well. Quick spool and easy 650-700hp. Above that level all the auto gearboxes will fail quickly. Last edited by Brule; 06-11-2019 at 12:01 AM.. Reason: wrong AR |

Nice, they seem like a good size. I wonder if there's enough clearance to fit an 8374 or 9180 on it? They're quite long and sit up quite high on ducks manifold - for example Phil can only barely fit a 7670 on his 335, nothing larger will allow the bonnet to close.

Clarification on price.
Just over $4700 delivered including wastegate and shipping. We will have to pay gst on arrival. Current 3 week lead time. Is anyone else interested? |

Thats pretty cool if you want to go top mount, they seem to know what they are talking about able with the RHD struggles.
Random question, whats difference between the N54 and N55 that would stop this manifold from working?

Looks like a good top mount solution, at least as good as it gets for RHD N54.
With a multi buy I can get them in for under 4k including freight, all taxes (GST & Duty) and currency exchange. 4+ combined orders are needed to get that price. Buy your turbosmart waste-gate in Oz, cheaper. Customs are particularly on the watch for undervaluing as its been way abused. They are checking off against website prices which are readily available online for this manifold. Turbo, ceramic coating, custom water and oil lines, heat shielding, custom piping and silicon joiners, boost lines, Mac solenoid, high capacity catch can, water pump mods, block-offs, filter, exhaust mods, plumb back BOV if you want legal and install will see this sail well past 10k with ease. Then start calculating the cost of supporting mods the likes of ICs, HPFP upgrades, tuning, gearboxes, clutches, diffs etc. to hold any decent power with a modicum of reliability. And all that before you have to rebuild your motor because it will blow with high HP at some stage. All good fun! :-)

They have to weld on the WG pipes and collars, so its just an EWG delete. Little less work. They might knock of 200??

Thats good you can get them so cheap. Hopefully a few people get on this setup rather than relying on traditional twin setups. I hope to see lots of Australians running singles this year. |

If anyone wants I am happy to organise the group buy.
Final pricing depends on numbers and shipping. More orders the cheaper it gets as the shipping will reach a critical saving point.

The turbo manifold studs on the bottom row of an N55 head don't line up with N54s.
It is likely that Walton would be in the process of developing the head plate for an N55 top mount but you'd have to ask them.
