- In today’s video we’re going to put the cheapest manifold I could find next to CSF super manifold and see what the real difference is.

Going on a year with the Alibaba Mani and the kozoyun heat exchanger combo. Absolutely love it.
That’s awesome to hear I’ll be documenting the installation this weekend and hopefully have some data log numbers by the following week
Looking forward to seeing your findings!
@@bilbofr4ggins646can you drop a link for me man, interested in getting it for my m240
@@turbotimegarage DO A STEP BY STEP im looking to buy one too. im still on stock manifold
I've been waiting for a video like this. I've been curious
More to come!
@turbotimegarage i bet those alibaba coolers are same as the do88 I've seen. Or even the BN.
@
I do believe there the same as BN and the TCM the allibaba company will put your branding and even put your name on the boxes of ordering more than 10 units 🤷🏻♂️
@turbotimegarage haha waiting for ur test results so I can get that alibaba special lol
Looking forward to this. .. wish there was a comparison for the s55 motor
Cant wait for more info!
I'm def waiting on the update to this!

Coming soon brother, finishing up the precision turbo upgrade for the big boost kit on the red Supra. Will be installing and testing this manifold in the next couple weeks
@turbotimegarage I'm assuming the alibaba one is worth the $$ it would be a minimal difference in iat. Also it's all single pass thru

Considering the stock core doesn’t have an airflow divider and is only 5 rows it’s a definite improvement over stock, I’m going to try and test both cars on the same day. It won’t be exact apples to apples as there on two different turbo kits. But there tuned at the same boost level making similar power
Wait for ur other video to see the results, since I already bought this and have it but haven’t installed it yet.
Finishing a precision turbo upgrade on a big boost kit this weekend so the install for this will be coming shortly after that
can't wait for the video after the test! main question is: so if you don;t spend 5k on the csf one, basically the 1k alibaba one is still a lot better than stock if you'r stage 2/2+? i hope yes. i'm about to buy it, i was just not convinced yet. waiting for your next video with all my patience :D
I’ll be doing an install video on it and and compare it to the stock core at that time. I can’t say for sure but it’s definitely going to be better than stock just based on size alone
Wait next part thx for your job
Bar and plate for the win. The pros definitely out weigh the cons vs tube and finally. Great content. I did this comparison with my CSF topmount and Mishimoto topmount for my F80. CSF bar and plate superior to the bar and fin design of Mishimoto which seems like it's an Alibaba product. The bar and fin would serve more for everyday driving vs racing.
I’m pretty happy with the build quality and looking forward to bringing in some data not expecting it to exceed the performance of the csf manifold but if for less than 1/3rd of the price it gets close I think it would open the door for a lot of guys on a budget
@@turbotimegarage I’m definitely looking forward to your findings!
Be honest, is the csf worth the extra 4k??? The 1k one and its quality looks superb and its billet. All it needs is a phenolic spacer and if u could check if thd csf one fits the china one thatd be Awesome.
@@laworder2652
I’m using the CSF spacer on it, It fits perfectly from the mock up, I’ll be installing this week doing an install review and talking about the actual fitment and installation. I’ll also be getting logs on both cars on the same day set at the same boost in the same conditions
That Alibaba manifold looks like the BimmerNetwork manifold... 🤔
I think it’s 100% the same I’d like to get ahold of one and confirm
logs will tell a story im sure. lets see!
Looking forward to the logs myself. Hopefully I can throw it on next week and see.
Running the alibaba manifold on my M340i. Torcoils just released an "EVO" version with a 20% bigger core, check that out.
I haven't gotten to run datalogs yet since a coolant hose has a small crack and is spewing out coolant. But I'm on hybrid turbo + Spool FX400X + S58 injectors.
@@mai_kul your coolant leak related to the manifold or a different part of the cooling system?
@ It may be connected to it; but it's more than likely due to how I mishandled some of it and the material of the line being plastic or whatever it is being so brittle. It's a very very small crack that coolant would spray lightly out of it.
@
I’ll be doing the install this weekend I’ll be doing the walk through and giving a review on fitment. Finishing turbo upgrade for the big boost kit today might have that video out tomorrow or Saturday
@@turbotimegarage I used a phenolic spacer and needed to buy longer screws. On a DAW turbo and that manifold it actually managed to fit the OEM charge pipe on it lol which I don't think anyone expects. I already bought a new charge pipe and will using that soon.
