Default turbo manifolds

ok so here is the situation i have my twin turbo kit off my old rx7 drag car ( it had a mild built 383 chev) i wouldnt mind putting the two td04's on my 94 ram i only want around 6 lbs of boost so nothing crazy i have been a turbo guy for as long as i can remember. I just am wondering if there is anyone who has ran a tt kit on our model trucks or if there is even a manifold/header kit i could use. or if i should just go with the whole cut a pair of headers and weld on flanges

There is no aftermarket for these trucks. Anything you want will be custom.

SDCE makes a twin turbo kit for magnum motors. PIE makes single kits and there's one more company I can't think of right now. Twins for a 383 will be on the big side for relatively stock 5.2... Prepare to bend over for any kit you buy.

the kit i had was made by me it just had tdo4 turbos which are very small even for a 4cyl motor i only saw a 158 hp increase at the wheels with 26lbs of boost on my old car so i dont plan on a ton of power just would like to put this kit to use the intercooler fits and i only need about 6 inches of tubing to finish the piping just need to find manifolds... which look like they will end up being custom fabbed

The biggest problem I see with turbos on a 94 is tuning it. You'll most likely have to get a standalone system. As for manifolds your going to have to make them. I have seen 1 twin turbo setup on you tube, but it was an old video.

Yeah, all the pics I saw of any flavor of turbo setup on a second gen, was custom made.

I noticed there was no price quoted. I guess if you have to ask that you can't afford it. LOL
