full race manifold.

Good thing about full race manifold is that if you decide not to use it on your car, you could use it as an art work in your house, since it's so beautifully made.

Have never tested the Megan racing but I have tested the DN Performance. They are great and cheap however they will crack eventually. That is for sure. Thankfully they have free replacement warranty up to a year.

the fullrace mani isn't made for the stock turbo.

anyway there's that new kid in town... the precision dyno mani... same design... different steel... i think it's worth looking into. ok scratch that if you find the thread about the pd mani you'll see why... 314 is bad for mani temp opperation... i guess if you heat cycle your mani frequently it is ok... but... i'd rather stick wtih 321 or thick thick 304

The new DNP manifolds have reinforcement welded on for each of the runners and two more supports for the flange where the turbo bolts to. I think this should help with the cracking.

The DN Performance header apears to be made of welded sections. I have heard you can order thier manifold w/o ALS bosses from thier website.

IMO DNP is in a different league than the SS, GT-spec and Megan which appear to be made from bent tubing in a remarkably similar design.

All of them say they are reiforced and bracketed.

Those where the ones that cracked. They cracked at the actual weld. Not complaining, cheap and it has warranty if anything.
