sounds like you have it all in place. dont take the flames to the *** 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 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 ****** till it breaks into a thousand pieces or I find a topmount mani on the side of the road.
