Not actually, the best way is to let 10,000 people waste THEIR hard earned money to save you a few hundred bucks and hours of adjusting your DP and hot-pipe to work with a different manifold

LoL... dude, you are the reason that SSautoshit is still in business.

No matter how many people waste their money on their products only to have them break people will still come on here and say, "it was cheap, so I don't care"...

You are going to end up spending more in the long run! Your manifold will break, and then you will have to buy another one. Oh well, it's your money not mine. I would run an HF manifold before ssautoshit any day.

ok eveybody hates my manifold! i undestand that know plz lets talk about something else! or is that all you guys want to talk about? plz if yu gonna talk about the manifold then tell me all your reasons why you all hate it? btw im seen so much vorse manifolds then ssautochome's! that have been homemade....

LOL, you sound like such a faggot, oh and learn how to spell, WTF is Plz?...Its Please.

As for your SSautoshit manifold, if you weld a bracket to the turbo flange and bolt it to your block to support the weight of the turbo, you might be fine, but dont say no one warned you. SSautoshit is the crapiest ---- out there, you get what you pay for buddy.

the reason people talk ---- about the chrome's is because i've made better welds with my soldering iron. its an awesome design, great collector, flows great, its just when not braced correctly they tend to break off. go with that, and either get somebody to reweld the joints, or reinforce it to the block and use a flexpipe after the downpipe and you won't have any trouble out of it.

The little asian kids that do my welds are still learning, my producs are constantly improving.

i was going to reinforce it to the block and i already have a flexpipe on my exhaust! so it should work! everyone knows a turbo+downpipe is kinda heavy! end when driving there are much vibations! if you not have a flexpipe you can easily break the exhaust house on the turbo and the manifold as well

Give him a break with his english, i'm assuming it's not his first language. Setup looks good and it sounds like you know what you're doing at least a little. I had a friend that ran the SSauto mani for 6 months and nothing ever broke on it. Yes, they're crap, but sometimes crap works. :-\

Re: what do you guys think of my HMT setup?
 
In all seriousness, I know a guy who's had an SS Autochrome for over 2 years and its still in 1 piece.






















He hasn't taken it out of the box yet.

no actually my fist language is swdish but im from Finland.....thx atleast someone thinks i got some good parts..... im have built a few turbo engines before but never for myself! and i have never ever built on a honda engine! yeah it's just to test the stuff and see if it breaks! ;)

---- man thats a downer.
Pls edit your post to ready.
My Turbo plans.
All this talk and the shits not yet on the car :P

Hey SS you serious about them Asian kids.
The ones I know can run circles arround most welders.
They start welding at the age of arround 8-10 and are pros before they are out of their teens.

lol.

sounds like you have it all in place. dont take the flames to the ass too much, cause seriously, if it's crap...it's crap. these guys arent talkin that ---- to flame on your manifold. the least u could do is redeem yourself by saying that you'd try to reinforce it somehow or weld the ---- out of it, or put 2,000 braces on it to make it last.

the worst thing you could do is try to back up and argue the quality of that manifold.

Re: what do you guys think of my HMT setup?
 
i like the whole u get what u pay for statement not talking ----, just saying i try and get my ---- as cheap as possible that's why i come here. . . and i don't plan on paying anything for the ---- i get it's freebies that i try and use but i'll say that my cheap ass would use the ss auto chromes and agree just brace the ---- out of it and then when it break say ehhhh don't care it was free and i got what i paid for

Re: what do you guys think of my HMT setup?
 
I installed many ss atochrome turbo headers, on D, B and H serie honda and on nissan.
I use one single bracket to support the turbo and I always use a flexpipe.
I never saw a crack on a SS header yet. And it's true, the product was improved over time.
They remain cheap asian headers, with insuficient diameter and the design could be better too. The wastegate location really sucks on certain applications.

Re: what do you guys think of my HMT setup?
 
My ssauto is "still" in one piece but I'm rocking a brace on mine. Also I'm hardcore with no flexpipe either in my down pipe and no problems "yet". I'll rock this fucker till it breaks into a thousand pieces or I find a topmount mani on the side of the road.
