Ravanelli If you like, I can take measurements with it fitted and you'll generally be able to figure out if there'll be issues for you. The 360 has one of the shortest and smallest engine bays. I took a gamble, and although it's tight, I've had no problems getting it to work.

One thing to keep in mind for anyone ordering is that three of the bolt/stud holes on the manifold have very limited space around them, and you will need short exhaust studs to make it work. The other 5 can fit 40mm+ studs.

A good question, I'd suggest that without getting measurements &/or trying it you won't ever be 110% sure ... however it seems fairly unlikely it wouldn't fit to me. Your down-pipe is most likely to run into problems IMHO, the turbo location looks a fair way forward of the RHD stuff it's likely to foul.

The turbos they mention sound like things which weren't new when I was looking at parts in 1999, does this suit turbos you'd want to use today?

Their pictures show a red 3D printed template. I wonder how much the template would cost? Oz volvo should start up a conversation and see if they cannot send the template out for us to test.

Andoria I've just changed my setup because I want to run more than 20psi. I have a 90's manifold, 19t turbo, 3" dump pipe, intake + turbo to intercooler hoses and piping if you want them?

Oops, wasn't meant to post here but funnily enough I bought this KT manifold and that's why I have my 19t available. It's fkn awesome. I put it in my 360 with a 3067r twin scroll masterpiece.

Is there a way to load pictures directly or do I have to use a third party app now and link it?

Forg Haha. The exhaust side sits about 10-15mm from the bonnet when closed. A turbo blanket and Gold reflective tape on the bonnet does a great job keeping the temps down. Merely warm to the touch after some spirited driving.

For future reference: if anyone was planning on using this KT manifold in a 360, the gt3067r is the largest turbo that will fit. The compressor housing only has 2mm of clearance, where the turbine housing has 10-15mm of clearance - enough to fit a turbo beanie/blanket without melting sh!t. The gt3067r shares the same compressor housing as the gt2867r, so technically that's the largest compressor housing that will fit.
