Default Does this mani look like SSAC ---- to you guys?

Hey guys, I found this mani on eBay and it looked pretty nice so I asked on TurboD16 what they thought about it and just about every one of them said it's an SSASHIT mani and that it's a POS ...but I don't think it looks anything like an SSAC. The external wg flange is on the opposite side, the finish is polished steele or not chromed out, and then flange that goes to the head is different, and not to mention the welds look better IMO. It says it's a Tsudo mani...I can't find anything on them other than their exhausts on eBay and I've read nothing but good reviews on those. Tell me what you guys think. TurboD16 started being gay about it.

Here's the "Tsudo" mani

Look the same to you guys or does the 1st one (Tsudo) look pretty good?

Yea that's what Im saying. On TurboD16, I asked what they thought about the mani, not whether it was SSAC or not and then they all said it was SSAC. I told them that it didn't look like it to me and I posted a pic of an SSAC kit so they could compare and then tell me what they thought again. Then they got mad and asked why I was asking if I was going to say it wasn't an SSAC. I never said it wasn't for one, and 2, I didn't even ask if it was SSAC. I simply asked what they thought of the mani lol. Sorry I know that's just useless info but it kinda made me mad. Anyway, does it look good to you guys or what? I know it's hard to tell from pics...but Im thinking about actually trying it out to to see. If I were to crack or anything, I could have it welded back up and then sold on eBay lol. But their exhaust systems seem to have good reviews so I dunno...anyone else have any opinions?

Looks similar, but I don't think it's SSAC. It's probably something just as cheap though.

same shitty bracing, same shitty material, same style to the construction, same style photos showing all the gaskets and bolts.

newsflash they don't manufacture ----, they get all their stuff from some shitty chinese knockoff distributor, and have more than one design.

I've heard that they have more than one design before but everywhere I look...even the ones that don't say they're SSAC but still look the same...look EXACTLY the same as SSAC. You don't have to be an *** about it either dude. Im just asking.
