HEAVY-DUTY SCHEDULE 40 1.8T TURBO MANIFOLD
A turbo manifold lives in an extremely demanding part of the engine bay. Exhaust heat, repeated thermal cycling, vibration and turbocharger weight can place considerable stress on the manifold. XS-POWER addresses these demands with heavy-wall Schedule 40 T304 stainless steel construction instead of relying on ordinary thin-wall tubing.
The result is a performance-oriented Audi VW 1.8T stainless steel turbo manifold designed around strength, heat resistance, exhaust flow and durability.

- T304 austenitic stainless steel
- Approximately 3MM wall thickness
- Equal-length runner configuration
- Compatible K03 / K04 turbo applications
- TIG-welded construction
- Precision-formed stainless steel runners
- Performance-oriented exhaust routing
- Corrosion-resistant stainless construction
- Designed for longitudinal Audi / VW 1.8T applications
EQUAL-LENGTH RUNNERS FOR PERFORMANCE TURBO BUILDS
Runner design matters on a turbocharged engine. This XS-POWER manifold uses an equal-length runner layout designed to provide a consistent exhaust path from the individual cylinders toward the turbocharger.
Efficient exhaust routing helps deliver exhaust energy to the turbine while minimizing unnecessary restriction and interference. For performance-oriented 1.8T builds, this makes an equal-length manifold an attractive alternative to conventional compact manifold designs.
The combination of equal-length runners and heavy Schedule 40 stainless tubing makes this manifold particularly well suited to enthusiasts building a modified Audi A4 1.8T or Volkswagen Passat 1.8T turbo system.
⚡ K03 AND K04 TURBOCHARGER APPLICATIONS
This manifold is designed for compatible K03 and K04 turbocharger configurations on longitudinal Audi / Volkswagen 1.8T applications.
That makes it especially relevant for enthusiasts searching for:
- Audi A4 B5 1.8T K03 turbo manifold
- Audi A4 B5 1.8T K04 turbo manifold
- VW Passat B5 1.8T K03 manifold

WHY SCHEDULE 40 CONSTRUCTION?
One of the biggest differences between this manifold and many ordinary tubular turbo manifolds is the heavy-wall Schedule 40 construction.
Turbo exhaust components experience repeated expansion and contraction as exhaust temperatures rise and fall. A substantial stainless runner provides a robust foundation for a performance turbo system, particularly where durability is an important consideration.
This is why XS-POWER created the Baller Series for enthusiasts who want something more substantial than an ordinary thin-wall stainless manifold.

SCHEDULE 40 TURBO MANIFOLD FOR 1.8L AUDI A4 (B5) AND VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT (B5)
A performance tuned turbo manifold ensures quicker and smoother flow of exhaust air to increase engine output and efficiency. Vacating exhaust air faster allows more intake air into engine cylinders for better combustion. Moreover, having separate ports and tube paths for each cylinder eliminates interference between exhaust pulses and thus reduces backpressure.
This turbo manifold features an equal length (EL) primaries design that ensures the turbine is hit by evenly spaced exhaust pulses and therefore results in quicker turbo spool-up.
The piping is constructed from authentic T304 stainless steel Schedule 40 tubes with patented craftsmanship for extraordinary strength. It is precisely aligned to maintain smooth paths for non-restricted flow. TIG welded at all joints, it also combines a cracking and corrosion resistant surface and an obstacle free internal wall.
Premium materials and top-notch craftsmanship make this manifold an ideal upgrade from its ordinary stainless steel piping counterpart for only those top class racing engines.
