dont forget to consider the poor design. the one i had on my LS had a good 2psi top end creep.

and the runners aren't very big diameterwise

 

Don't boycott SSAutochrome just because they employ Chinese workers
Boycott SSAutochrome because they're shoddy liars who sell cheap ---- hardly worth using as ballast.

I discovered that fact long before I found this website and many people on here seems to say the same thing.

 

That too, they're customer service is SHITTY I know that first hand.

What do you work in the ching ding chong factory? Its no secret they're products are garbage and they use shitty materials to try to copy designs by companies like garret. %95 of their cheap *** garbage ---- turbo's dont see 2,000 miles.

 

yes there service is shitty, i took pics of the mani and sent it to the and they would not replace it. that was shitty as hell, will never by anything from them again. the turbo i got has lasted a year so far and when it goes ( like i said when ) i'm going back to a garret. i would sell my turbo but hell i can't get ---- out of
it so i will just run it to it goes.

 

#1 n00b question on internet turbo forums. No one listens. The only answer is to either spend your money on a real manifold, or learn the hard way.

 

Wise words from a wise man.

 

well you live and you learn. i was not a member of hmt when i got my mani. i want a top mount mani, there are so pretty, make my thing puffy right on the end

 

I've been running a shitty OBX thing for almost 2 years and have had NO problems...mabe I'm just lucky. Granted, I am not using an external wastgate. I did manage to find one with 1/2 inch thick flanges insted of 3/8. Mabe that's why?? who knows, I thought it would have fallen apart a long time ago...
