Re:pics or collector from ssautocrap mani
LOL, luv to see haters hating on your shyt.......when your ten steps ahead of them...
sorry guys, but my manifold is not the cheap EBAY ones, it was built with a thick steel, and it came with brakets (to bot to block, from turbo, and another one to bolt from Downpipe to block).
i was told by a guy who build these for a living, that my manifold will run for 799, but after working out the prices of the turbo and other parts, i estimated about $550-$640, i paid $2800, (including a HUGE FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER) for the complete kit (all polished pipes, and parts), and about $300 for misc. parts and management.
*for the starter of this topic*
hey dont worry about the cheap manifold, just get it re-welded the proper way, and hope it does not crack. or breaks. good luck.

Re:pics or collector from ssautocrap mani
even if it doesnt crack its still garbage imo. the runners are tiny, the collector looks like ***, and the wg tube/hole doesnt look like it would flow for ----. but thats just my opinion. its a good thing its temporary, that si deserves better

Hmmm....it's not as bad as I thought it would be. It's no wwwlovefab.com manifold, but it might not be so bad for a low budget setup. 
The thing that worries me is all the people that have had them crack and fall apart. 
Thanks for posting those pics.
