Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone has heard or used this manifold, kinda looks like another Megan unit but it looks like they probably make it in-house. What do you guys think? I think its pretty cheap and yes I know ported stocker FTW!!!

I think you answered your own question, ported stocker will be better than this.

Its another POS chinese manifold that will GUARANTEED CRACK..

What if the welds were reinforced before the manifold was put on instead of fixing it when it cracks? Has anyone ever done that? The problem is see is that the little welds at the end of the runners can't support the weight and vibration of the turbo and they crack. Any thoughts?

 

just buy it. its 124 bucks.

 

I had a ebay one for a year paid 100 for it not a bad mani honestly.

 

Well actually my dad bought it for $104 a couple days ago, I think were putting it on my brothers evo.

 

i had one, and took it off. it looks like crap on the inside

 

It cracks all over.. its the CHEAP MATERIAL used nothing to do with supports.. We had a GT SPEC on our car that looked identical to that one with supports welded etc and it cracked all over..

 

The QC is not the best from China, so if you do purchase this manifold, make sure you check for slag inside. If a piece of the slag comes off, you can kiss your turbo good bye. They also use cheaper/thin material that is prone to cracking. You can make the Chinese unit work, but it will require a ton of work on your part. It's going to need to be cut, debured, bracketed and re welded.

I would stick with a vendor that is going to stand behind there product. We offer a stock replacement manifold with a lifetime warranty.

Thanks!

Michael

 

Yes i forgot to mention the nasty swag on the inside that has to be cleaned.. if you cant afford a nice stock replacement tubular then buschur ported is the way to go..
