Good find.
"This manifold carries a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects."

Wonder if they'll honor that guarantee when it cracks?

how and the hell are you going to fit a wastegate on there? that looks like it will hit the cooling fans for sure, and would you want your wastegate right by your intake of your turbo? that would look funny. thing looks like a piece of shit to me, the welds where they are connected have like bubbles next to them in the pipe. must not be too strong. looks like junk to me.

It says it's made with 321 steel, which should be stronger. I think they should have moved the collector over to the right some more.

OBX = the suck: or = crap..

Yah both of the manifolds that ya'll linked too would put the WG right into the damn fans...even if you have slim fans you wouldn't have the clearnace to use that.

I can already tell you it has clearence issues. Its a piece of shit and obviously they dont trust it if they have braces holding the pipes to 'help' keep it from cracking.

I did buy one of the second one and it doesn't fit.the turbo hits the coolant lines and the hood.There is no way to get the down pipe connected if it did clear and the weld had a crack in it .This manifold is shit
