I've purchased an Ebay turbo kit for my 1992 Swift GT with the assurance that it can be installed without removing the A/C system. An exhaust manifold is not included in the kit. The Ebay stainless steel turbo headers are too big. Can anyone tell me what turbo exhaust manifold/headers will allow for the turbo installation without necessitating the removal of the A/C system? Thanks.

None off the shelf, they would need to be custom made.

The AVO is the one you want.

A simple log manifold will do it. For small turbo this is more than fine. I had this setup with a TB23 (off a 300ZX) and a garrett GT2554.

Assuming you can find one! Ditto goes for the log manifold SuziTech used to sell.

This is the AVO Manifold. Note that the turbo is mounted the wrong way. And the turbo body and manifold have been ceramicoated.
