well, it turned out like ---- but I'll post pics anyway. I painted it already, not like it helps much, but whatever. My main problem was coping out the tees instead of just buying some. Anyway, I've found a cnc shop to cut the flanges for me cheaply so the quiality will improve alot once I get the flanges made (1-2weeks). This was mainly to see if I could make one without warping the ---- out of it, which I did, BUT as **** said, it was hella waste of time just to make one and the fitment isn't near as good as it could be when I get the flanges made and some actual tees instead of cobbling some together. Still, I'm 100% positive the welds on this bastard are strong enough. So... you guys were right, but I'm not done yet!

I DIDN'T CLEAN IT UP BEFORE PAINTING, i just threw a coat on there which in hidsight made it look more like ***.

and if people start saying they want a/c compatible this and external gate that the price is going to jump, materials for these things are expensive.

Maybe for him they are, but in general, mild steel is not more expensive material wise then stainless. Its about half the price.

yeah i dont see how mild steel could cost more than stainless. if the price went up for mild then stainless would be a buttload. i think the quality is good for being 100 bucks. cant expect much. good stuff

Hell for a 100 shipped and that manifold don't look bad. Looks like something that'd be on the Terminator's car. All straight cut and no frills.
