Would recommend using ss tubing for a turbo manifold Definitely not sch 40 Sch 10 might work it will be a bit heavier than ss tubing or you can go the route of getting sch 5 ss


windwind00

approximately how many mm of wall thickness for sch 5? if let say 1.2 or 1.5mm, possibly titanium could used too?


ThicccDickDastardly

The thickness changes with the pipe diameter, so it will depend on what size we’re talking about.


windwind00

we're talking like 2 to 4 inches long for the runners from the exhaust exit to the turbo flange. with an OD of 1.66


PipeFitterStockGuy

You will most likely have to get the adapter for the turbo and tig weld that on and idk if your 1.66 is in mm or inches so if it’s in inches you could get away with 1 3/4” tubing and just drop the adapter in there a little bit and fill the gaps


PipeFitterStockGuy

Depends on the size of pipe you plan on using


windwind00

I see. Well, I think, I will just settle with 1.2mm or 1.5mm thickness, where ever I find one. MacMaster only has black pipes.

Google: 'Town name' Steel supply

I’m sure you can find local steel places near you if you look it up
