OM603 header - oel_brenner - 11-03-2011
nothing like freshly machined parts.
this is the start to my turbo header to mount my HE351Ve
to a OM603.
I will update this thread with progress
RE: OM603 header - iheartboost - 11-04-2011
so when your done you can send one to me for beta testing

Gonna put 60X's in das boat?

no, this is for the W107
some progress:

DUDE! that the exact turbo i want to put on my car / manifold i want to build!
tubular will be too difficult for me. but i could manage a sort of log style one!
this is awesome keep us updated!

Make. More. Thanks.

What material are you using?

Stainless Steel

Why made manifold like that ?
RE: OM603 header - iheartboost - 12-08-2011
easy to make, lighter, cheaper.
not as good flow/ performance but 100x better than stock still.

RE: OM603 header - willbhere4u - 12-09-2011
compared to this yea it way better

(12-09-2011, 04:36 PM)jeemu Are you sure?
Yea im pretty sure. the stock manifold. even the euro one dosent seem to flow that well.

(12-09-2011, 05:22 PM)iheartboostJust look at those two.(12-09-2011, 04:36 PM)jeemu Are you sure?

RE: OM603 header - iheartboost - 12-09-2011
look at what?
RE: OM603 header - oel_brenner - 12-09-2011
the primary tubes are a bit larger, and the collector area is a bit larger from stock, so this will flow much better then stock US or Euro.
but the main reasons I went with a log style over a tubular tuned header are:
I am not looking for maximum power output, so the minor benefits of a tuned header are not needed
the thickness of walls have better insulating properties vs. thin-wall tube.
while a long tube header will flow better at higher RPM and create a bit more horsepower, a log style with shorter exhaust paths to turbo will improve low-end torque.
and the biggest reason: not enough room in the W107 engine bay for a tubular header and this turbo !
