t3 manifold

Looking for a t3 manifold to put my own kit together. I'm going to fab my own piping. I know rev hard makes a cast unit, but haven't been able to find much else. Not interested in spending 1100$-1200 for a tubular. Any other ideas?

I hear alot of horror stories about the hafe cast manifold. Everything from surging to o2 housing bolts that keep backing out. Maybe some hafe manifold users can chime in.

Ebay sells a full race copy all you have to do is port match and clean up the weld sag in the merge collector. Its about $200 comes with dp but i dont trust it.

yeah, i wouldnt buy the ebay copy unless i knew how to weld really well (i.e. be able to fix it when it breaks). in which case i would just make my own manifold

I did a search and found quite a few people with the problems I mentioned. Any hafe manifold users wanna chime in on this? Also anyone use those dnp manifolds, they are cheap but only offer 1 yr warranty

I ordered 5 manifolds for me and a few budys they used theres i didnt all the other cars have held up after they port matched and cleaned up the weld sag. They all have 35R's on the cars power on pump gas is over 400+. It works welds hold up just fine. Send it out for a nice coating and your set. I sold mine i went with a T4 topmount.

I have a SBR GT35R which uses the HAFE manifold and o2 housing, and haven't had a problem so far.

Our Super Value manifolds are both tubular AND reasonably priced at $699 separate of the turbo kit. If you have any questions don't hesitate to get a hold of me!
