B20a exaust Manifold and Downpipe

[L3G10N]

I'm back from the Junkyard. When i've bought my B20a, the downpipe was not on the engine (maybe the only part who was missing :rant: ). After looking the Lude manual, i've saw that the b20a5 have the same type of exaust manifold, so i've take a look at the junkyard to see if the downpipe of the b20a5 can fits on the b20aJDM...... :mad: NO!!!!!

So, i've searched a b20a5 exaust manifold to look if the bolt pattern and the size was the same. It looks like yes :D

So wednesday i'll go back to the junkyard, buy a b20a5 manifold and i'll try it directly on the b20a. Do i have to check something else except the bolt pattern and if it fit?

The B20A5 Mainifold and downpipe will not fit properly. The manifold will with slight modification but the angle of the downpipe will be off as the B20A5 leans back. This is the same problem Mike Lee had with his Ludespeed turbo kit but a little cutting and welding fixed that.

ya i already know that. that's why i'm looking for the b20a5 downpipe but i have to try the manifold. the bolt pattern are exactly the same.
