Just avoid the turbo manifolds.The rest of his stuff his fine.I got a intake manifold for him the other day [LS] and it came with a BOV and a fuel rail for $125 US.The manifold looks great and is a knockoff of the SKunk,Blox etc units.

Not really true, I had a day or two of lag time trying to contact them... but once I did they replaced a Fedex damanged FMIC for me. When that one got damage also, they replaced it again. So in the end I got a perfect IC and was pleased with how they handled it.

in response to some negative feedback he called that guy a be-otch! umm yeah for 40 bux sure buy one but dont waste your money on the new ones.

oh and its the metal itself that fatigues and breaks not the welds, ive even seen braced manifolds fall apart. at least try the newer ones that say they have thicker metal. oh yeah and have fun with that wategate placement. you understand how a slash cut tube in your intake works??? well they use the SAME philisophy to design their wategate placement. think about that..

I used one with no problems, jeff thinks its the b series manis that have the most problem, i was using a internal wastegate with a flexpipe and braced the mani and it never cracked.

The Turbo will be Internally Gated. So I can just block off the Wastgate side. For 40 its worth a try to see if it works.

The first hmt kit I did I had a SSautopoop manifold on my D15 and i actually didnt have a problem with it.I was using a little T25 and braced it from the turbo to the block.Funny enough I have found SS to have excellent service and the best as well as fastest shipping i have ever recieved from ebay.
