then thro it away. No matter how many times you brace it IT will still crack somewhere somehow. dont waste your time on that. buy a cheap china cast manifold instead or use a hf manifold if your being cheap.
search ebay and you can find some of these for about 100 shipped http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/civic...69149888QQrdZ1

i had mine retigged with "super missle" rod from the local welding supply store then took a piece of flat iron and braced it from a bolt hole to one of the AC bolt holes. worked great for 2 years plus with no cracks at all. would never get another one though.

he is just on the ssautoshit bandwagon and has no real experence with it. i have never used it, but by the looks of things just support the turbo in some way and im sure it will be fine

just wait and get a real manifold. don't rush it, because ---- will go bad in the end.

by the way, there is no way i'd ever put a sc61 on and ssautochrome manifold, i'm suprised the manifold hasn't cracked in anticpation already

actually i personaly have not used SSAUTOCRAP but i have a close friend that used it and his ---- fell the ---- off his manifold. Than a freind of mine was installing a motor for someone who used a SSautocrao manifold and all the welds were cracked and the turbo wouldnt boost. i would say thats good enough experinece to warrant sayin that there ---- is junk...I mean u get what u pay for.
