The whole subject is up in the air. Some people say on here that SSAUTOCHROME is crap and others say it is being tested and kinda in the works on how if it would be good to use or bad to use.

yeah you should just search arround, cause on honda-tech.com the reviews on them are.. well less than satifactory for the price.
but here, it is being tested. I dont quite remember the user. its to early for me to search!, That i will leave to you, that is if you are interested in finding out more.

Do a SEARCH because there are 99999999 of these xs power, ssac, etc ------- threads.....

here are the facts about 20000 people used their manifolds and had them crack,.... so are you feeling lucky? its up to you....

the wastegates and blow off valves dont seem to be that bad, although there have been a couple mishaps with the wastegates....

in my honest opinion i would never buy from them because the guy is a ------- dick fatigue and if you look at how he answers his sellers questions i dont think you would want to give him your money either....

I did see his reply to the kid that complained about mis-matched parts and that right there forces me not to do business with him. If I had a problem and got a response like that that dude with be shitting a Turd Ball Manifold Sandwich.

Understand there is like billions of the other ones but I guess wanted some other opinions also. Also does anyone know any how to's on the weak weld spots on these manifolds. I know there is bracing you can do I was wondering if anyone has done a write up on it.

as far as bracing it i would brace it from the turbo to the block and the wastegate part of the manifold back to the manifold for added strength, the manifolds usually crack right at the collector or where the wastegate thing is

it seems that if you dont mind welding up a few cracks here and there then its fine
