So I decided to get my car a valve adjustment today, since i have been hearing a ticking sound. I thought maybe it was just that or an oil problem. After dropping my car off I got a call that my manifold cracked. I have the SS manifold, there is a 1 to 1.5 inch crack right down the middle. I have contacted greddy to resolve the problem, hopefully they will help me out. A little surprising as I have only had the kit for maybe 3 to 4 months. Pictures will be up soon, i know there have been more than one cracked manifolds if anyone has any first hand expierence with dealing with greddy please let me know.

 

 

yeah.......that does suck.....did you get one of the first manifolds? i heard they fixed that problem now right?

 

So that's the manifold that came with the Greddy turbo kit? Hope everything gets worked out.

 

Greddy was very professional, i also had the cracked tubular manifold, and they replaced it free of charge with a cast manifold. Talk to toshi or tim, very cool guys to deal with. I fortunately live close to greddy east division and i was able to meet up with toshi and tim personally at the warehouse. But just tell them your situation, and they'll take care of you

 

This was my cracked Greddy manifold from last year.





Toshi was the Greddy guy I spoke to in Jersey, and he is quite familiar with this issue. He was quite professional and took care of the issue quickly. He also came through for me when I was having issues with my internal wastegate a few weeks after the manifold incident. They will cover the entire cost of replacement and installation.

 

yup, i had the exact same situation as parkerdw, but greddy handled everything professionally without me spending another dime. I also got the updated internal wastegate since mine seized also, the newer ones are better material as said by toshi and tim.

Rich are they (first gen) cracking in the same location?
What explanation did they give you? Turbo to heavy?

I am sorry to be off on the topic, but do you experience any rattle around 3k rpm on this setup?

I notice on the picture, the manifold is touching the down pipe...
