hahah, i dont think ive ever seen a alum turbo or norm manifold, they couldnt take the heat most likly, would warp or somthin, melt, idk, somtimes adapter plates cant even take it, but its not really exhuast gasses straight on it, but normaly manifolds are made out of stainless steel or mild. i know there might be some alum manifolds somwhere, but thats one of the stupidest designs ever, they take in and hold so much heat, it ------s good thow

Old Super Duty Pontiacs had aluminum manifolds. I'm sure there's others, but they're definately the exception rather than a norm. I'm sure they'd be about useless for turbo applications.

I didn't see any whip. Was it inside the car or something?
