 XS-POWER Ford 2.3L Turbo Stainless Steel Tubular Race Header

XS-POWER is proud to offer our performance-oriented Ford 2.3L Turbo stainless steel tubular race header / turbo manifold for enthusiasts building the legendary turbocharged Ford 2.3 platform.

Designed for performance applications including the Ford Mustang SVO, Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe and Merkur XR4Ti, this manifold combines a high-flow tubular configuration with equal-length 1.625" primaries, a center-mounted T3 turbo flange, external 35–38mm wastegate flange and heavy-duty 1/2" machined flanges.

Whether you call it a Ford 2.3 turbo header, 2.3L turbo manifold, Mustang SVO turbo manifold, Thunderbird Turbo Coupe header, Merkur XR4Ti manifold or Ford Lima turbo header, this XS-POWER system was developed for builders looking to move beyond the restrictive factory-style manifold configuration.

BUILT FOR THE FORD 2.3 TURBO ENTHUSIAST

The center-mount turbo configuration and equal-length tubular runners are designed for performance-oriented Ford 2.3L turbo builds where exhaust flow, turbo positioning, serviceability and external wastegate control are priorities.

⭐ PERFORMANCE FEATURES

✓ Equal-Length Tubular Design
1.625" / 1-5/8" primary runners designed for high-flow turbo applications.
✓ Center-Mount T3 Turbo Flange
Accepts compatible turbochargers using the standard rectangular four-bolt T3 turbine inlet flange.
✓ T304 Stainless Steel
Premium stainless construction for demanding turbo exhaust environments.
✓ External Wastegate Ready
Designed for compatible 35–38mm external wastegate configurations.
✓ High-Flow Merge Collector
Smooth runner transition into the collector helps promote efficient exhaust flow toward the turbine.
✓ Heavy-Duty Flanges
0.50" / 1/2" thick machined flanges provide a substantial mounting surface.
✓ TIG-Welded Construction
CNC-machined flange components combined with heavy-duty TIG-welded construction.
✓ Additional Bracing
Reinforcement at critical areas including the external wastegate flange.

⚡ CENTER-MOUNT T3 TURBO CONFIGURATION

The XS-POWER header relocates the turbocharger into a center-mounted configuration. This orientation provides a performance-focused layout and can make turbocharger access considerably easier than tightly packaged factory-style arrangements.

Compatible Turbo Flange: Standard T3-style rectangular 4-bolt turbine inlet flange.

 FORD 2.3L TURBO APPLICATIONS

Designed for performance and custom turbo installations using the Ford 2.3L turbo engine platform, including applicable:

  • Ford Mustang SVO 2.3L Turbo
  • Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe 2.3L Turbo
  • Merkur XR4Ti 2.3L Turbo
  • Ford Mustang 2.3L Turbo performance builds
  • Ford 2.3 Lima turbo engine conversions and custom builds
  • Other compatible Ford 2.3L turbo-powered applications
⚠️ IMPORTANT — THIS IS NOT A STOCK REPLACEMENT MANIFOLD

This is a performance tubular race header using a center-mounted T3 turbo and external wastegate configuration. It is NOT a direct factory replacement for the original exhaust manifold.

Turbocharger position, downpipe, intake plumbing, oil lines, coolant lines, wastegate plumbing and other components may require modification or custom fabrication depending on the vehicle and turbocharger combination.

EXTERNAL WASTEGATE CONFIGURATION

The manifold incorporates a flange for a compatible 35mm–38mm external wastegate.

When routing the external wastegate discharge back into the downpipe, a braided flex section must be incorporated into the wastegate dump/recirculation tube to accommodate movement and thermal expansion.

 WHAT'S INCLUDED

  • (1) XS-POWER Ford 2.3L Turbo Stainless Steel Header / Manifold
  • Header flange gasket
  • Turbo flange gasket
  • Wastegate gasket
  • Turbo studs and nuts
  • Wastegate bolts and nuts
  • Associated hardware as pictured

 INSTALLATION INFORMATION

Professional installation is highly recommended. Installation instructions are not included.

Because this is a performance center-mount turbo manifold rather than a factory replacement, the installer should verify turbocharger clearance, wastegate placement, downpipe routing, oil-feed and drain routing, intake plumbing and surrounding component clearance before final installation.
