I got the cast manifold from ebay and worked great no problems at all. went through many kits with tubular mani's from ebay aswell and also worked fine but with a smaller t3 turbocharger.

my buddy used a mani like that. It cracked once. then we built supports and It hasn't cracked anymor.. Good luck... BTW did you pick up some place mats and dish towels when you were at Canadian Tire? LOL That place sells everything.

Yea, those manifolds do crack so weld up a few supports which will help you, the ebay turbos can be hit or miss but in my opinion and experience, they are just as good as certain name brand products. You will have fun with that setup, post up some times or dyno results when you are finished.

We all know someone who has gotten lucky with ebay parts... but really, why buy the same stuff twice? You will save money and time buying name brand, tested and trued products. Really... an HF mani is better/stronger than your tube mani. (HF mani free -$30, 14b or T25.. $100 or less) I know you will have fun with the set up... but for how long? Good parts and a good tune will make your car more reliable and engine last way longer.
