NEED HELP FAST, NEED HELP FAST!!!!!!!
I need to know if a manifold from a 300 turbo diesel of the same year(s) will fit a 300e, If so I can buy the manifold my friend is selling, and turbocharge my car!!!! Or if you dont know that, simply will a manifold from a non-turbo diesel fit my non turbo 300e? THANKS

RE: NEED HELP FAST, NEED HELP FAST!!!!!!!
I think the manifolds are the same... HOWEVER turbo charging a non-turbo engine is kinda a fruitless cause. I recently turbo charged a car that was orginally an N/A car...and ended up blowing a head gasket simply because I was trying to run too much boost... If you were to turbo charge your 300E you would only be able to run 5-7PSI of boost. If your going to do it...do it right...have a manifold built...rebuild your engine...lowering compression and go from there.... only running 5-7PSI is really not that big of difference and not as much fun as running 18-22PSI of boost and having a blow off valve that sounds like air brakes releasing when it blows off.....awww.... I love my car!!
Anyway...just one mans thoughts... Good luck!

Thanks, if you simply take a smaller turbo (13g, t25....) at 5-7psi It will be fine untill I can have my motor re-done.... I gurantee at least 40% increase because I know alot about turboing and cut no corners....
