Take a look at how they make these manifolds.

I am defiantly getting one of these.

It is tubular despite looking like a log.
Granted its not equal length but holy crap this thing has go to be bulletproof

^^^
I just pulled the trigger on mine about 4 days ago, should take about 2 weeks to get it. I watched those vids and decided to go for it. It took forever to get horsepower freaks to sell me one though.

Here a few older pics of it installed. I've since upgraded to a 44mm wastegate and had it ceramic coated.



nice setup, this is a little off topic, but what did you use to cover the a/c lines? is that heat reflective wire loom?

not without some serious custom brackets,

the heat shield mounts to the stock header and turbo manifolds completely replace a header,

I got it today and wanted to show you some pics of the finished product. I have a few concerns to point out though. Please tell me if they are something to be worried about.



Notice in this next pic how the bolt holes penetrate into the chamber. Is this an issue?
