no we do not plan to make the sst manifold. we are actually going to release our own design of manifold that is not coping any body elses.

i got one of his manifolds a few months back, nice product, wish he was offering ss flanges when i bought mine, i hate rust. one suggestion though james, one problem i ran into with my log mani, the external wastegate being on the right side of it comes into problems when running the compressor side of the turbo on the right side. meaning theres no room for a dump tube, well you could probably say then turn the turbo around, but if you already have a dp made then thats kinda hard. just a suggestion, you should offer the external wastegate flange on both side of the manifold for comstumers who could run into a problem such as mine. but thanks for the manifold, good product

on my new lineup of manifolds i plan to offer ac compatable and non ac, which will basically be the differnce of wastegate placement, and downpipe. i am also going to offer dual wastegate option for an extra $50.

im looking at around 250-275$ shipped for them. the traction bars are going to be made of 1 5/8ths chromoly steel 100% tig welded to ensure maximum strenght.
