MAP short runner is a good manifold, im surprised it started to crack. If you change your mind, let me know bud

Performance-wise, it's probably the best bang-for-your-buck manifold out there, especially on a stock turbo. The only problem is the early version of them with the anti-lag ports tend to crack on the welds that the connect the ports to the runners and, unfortunately, they only came with a one year warranty (Sinople1 had the same problem with his). MAP has since corrected the issue and the new ones now come with a lifetime warranty.

Ive heard good things about the MAP manifold. It sucks though that yours only had a 1 year warranty though. I remember back 5 years ago, I had the meagan manifold and that was cracking i think 8 months or so later if i remember correctly.
