??The manifolds are pieces of ---- and the turbos are a diceroll. If you want quality parts than buy quality products, if your a gambling person buy from ssautofaggot

Re: SSS Autochrome
im having some good luck with my wastegate and d series manifold. no problems at all yet. the only concern that i had was inside the collector, all of the pipes were different lengths...therefore blocking airflow. i need to grind them down i guess. is that a "warranteed" issue, or do i just have to deal with it. its been used for about 2,000 miles

Re: SSS Autochrome
Both turbos and both wastegates (57trim) 35mm gates have been working good. I've had no issues with anything for over 3 months on my car, and 1 months on a friends.

Has anyone had any experience with the "monster" manifolds? Like these:
I'm content with mine....HOWEVER. HOTREX you did an awesome job and you were true to your word regarding shipping...yet on the two inner manifold pipes...well they aren't exactly smooth. The ID of the two inner pipes are larger than the ID of the outer pipes...so there is a kind of blockage.
I suppose I am complaining..just slightly..just let me know the appropriate tool I can use to grind them down. I tried using some grinders on my 110v dremel but they kept breaking.
I'll take some pics later for clarification but right now I'm teh wasted.
Anyway thanks Hotrex, just let me know how to grind this shiat down.
