If it cost 100 bucks Id pick one up.

300 for a cast mani is just too much IMO.

Id assume your oil drain/dp wouldnt hang as low
that's what i was thinking. you wouldn't even be able to run too large of a turbo due to hood clearances.

Top Mounts arent designed for flow...they are designed to fit a bigger downpipe/turbo setup under the hood.

I have seen these in person and for what they are people running HMT setups should be in heaven. They are cheap, they work and they are made in muffuckin ching chong meow land...wastegate placement doesnt make me very hard and they do weigh a ton.

I have been rocking a cast stainless Inline PRO manifold in my car for 5 years now. I love cast and they work and they flow fine...they dont crack, once the cast is correct they always FIT, and you dont have to wait ten weeks to get one made...or never arrive if you buy from Buttsex

I dont think you can compare a inline pro to one of these. I'd rock a inline anyday.

cast ftw. but im not too sure about this one. it looks like poo and with a big turbo it would be a PITA !


inline pro mani is like $500 last time i looked on there site. and ------- ebay still didnt make a copy of it.

If it clears the hood I can dig it.

i was just going to try to make an argument about this being great because its a/c compatible, but then i looked at the pic again. seems you cant even keep a/c.

im with joe on this one, if it were $100, or even $150, it would sell like mad. but your $300, no way.
