I've been useing a ssautocrap mani for 2 months no probs yet

Re:SS autochrome?
 

werd, i just got one b/c my other one was crap and put my turbo in my radiator, ---- it, it's cheap, and if it breaks, just weld it back up

Thats the HMT way fellas, wled her back up if she breaks ;) Heh, I reply the same way to every one of these posts because I myself am running one with my setup and have had no problems. I did re-weld just about everything on the manifold and I added bracing for extra support. The manifold is honestly rely strong (now that I've welded it up), I don't know how they are just bolting them on out of the box thogh. Oh yes and they say they are AC compatible, but I could NOT for the life of me fit either a downpipe on there or switch the turbo around so the compressor housing was on the drivers side... Either way, there was no room and the Ac compressor was in the way.

yeah, i had to take my a/c out for my first 'a/c compatable' manifold, but by looking at the ssautoshit mani, there's no way in hell it's compatable, the pics they take of them with the a/c, there's no turbo on the mani, i guess the mani is compatable, as long as you don't try to bolt a turbo up to it ::) i just went ahead and sold it, so i wouldn't try to put it back in ;D

Hehe, yeah they have some fitment problems with AC. I mean I had my turbo mounted to it with the exhaust housing on the drivers side, but there was no way a downpipe was going in there too... not even that needle dick downpipe they give you in the kit. Speaking of that, anybody want a stainless downpipe? ;)
