i think they are the same cast type, but the hf seems to be thicker, just seeing if anyone knows if they are prone to crack.

i havent heard much of people using the hx manifold but i know people use the cx manifold with the cat cut off and that works fine. even if it does crack its not like they are expensive. with s good tune your egts should not be too high so i would not worry about it
