Default ss auto mani

I need a 14b mani for a b16. I know I know its a small turbo cool. Its kinda tough to find that combo but ss autochrome makes one thats readily available for around $100. Anybody that has used one of their braced tubular manifolds please post up and tell me your experience with it. Im trying to keep my a/c as well since I live in FL so any info an that would be good too. Thanks in advance for not making retarded comments in my post.

As long as they are supported GOOD you probably wont have problems with it, some will dissagree. I've seem the ssauto mani on a few setups unsuported that have done alright, its just sad to see you supporting those ching chong sweatshop's, it just hurts the businesse's here that make a better product.

i bought a ss auto mani and it had 3 braces and it lasted 3 weeks and the waste gate flange broke off the mani when i hit a bump one night, it was for a d-series. i've been running the t3/t4 turbo for a year now and still in great shape. but not a fan of ss auto. my other turbo broke a shaft b/c of not a enough of oil and i was broke so i bought the ss auto t3/t4 to4e and been driven it every day on 10psi for a year and no problem yet. the motor is stock.

my ss auto (actually obx) has been holding up fine for a few months now. it has an extra brace that bolts down to the bottom of the block. I dont forsee it cracking too soon. I drive at least 200 miles a week too
