Default Manifold Company Thoughts

Well, my setup has been running for about a year and a half. Back when I first put together my setup, KRB was a reputible company, and I bought my log mani from them. Since then, they have disapeared off the face of the planet, and my manifold keeps cracking...Frankly, I'd rather pay money for a more baller setup to make the setup more reliable. Time is a huge issue for me and finding time to work on my car is becoming harder and harder to find, so I've decided to buy a ramhorn and 3" downpipe for my car. However, I dont wanna get fucked over again, so I would like some input on the current companies I've been looking at.

StraightLineSpecialties -- 900
SpoolinPerformance -- 1045 (They look real solid. seem to have been around for quite some time and i havent been able to find any complaints)
Arizona Forced Induction -- Waiting on a quote, but looks like their pricing will be somewhere in between the two
RLD Fab -- 1099

So they are all close enough in pricing, that I dont mind spending the money for one of the more expensive ones for piece of mind. I kno this isnt really a HMT post, but I'm sick of my ---- breaking

You should have posted this on Honda-Tech. Not one of those ******* is a sponsor here.

And if you're going to pay that much why not look at LoveFab or Nuekin (sp) too?

SLS makes good stuff, but my god they ------- LAG! I ordered an intercooler piping kit from them that was supposedly in stock and I'm not kidding it took 4 MONTHS to get to me! They're good if you don't mind waiting, but like 88DX said Full Race is good enough an you can get it way quicker.

SLS has always been slow, they're about laughed out of the DSM community so now they're in Honda's.

I ordered a bunch of ---- from them 2 yrs ago and 5 MONTHS later it showed up. It had been so long I ------- forgot I'd ordered it and I'd sold the car it was intended for
