Never mind the 6 cylinder manifold picture.  Its likely a generic picture.

Still, its probably the same manifold that doesn't fit and I've been trying to get a refund for 11 months.  I got mine from Turbochargers.com, who got it from Protech, who got it from Turbonetics.  And all the way up the supply chain, nobody had any idea what it actually fit on.

You can be sure if it says it fits a Swift (16 valve DOHC), it will not fit a Sidekick (16 SOHC).

Right.  That's what I said.  I've been talking with Turbonetics about their manifold for months.  They appear to have exactly one exhaust manifold that they think (or thought) fits a Sidekick.  It does not.

As evidence I submit my own experience and the fact that the Nopi catalog entry lists the Sidekick and Swift GTi, which do not have compatible exhaust manifolds.

If Turbonetics has another manifold now, that would be news.  But, I don't think that is the case.
