Default GodSpeed manifolds???

I just ran across this manifold on Ebay. Would be nice for my budget build.. What do you guys think? Doesn't seem like the cheap no name ones....

But $500 for a LOG manifold? I know they are good but you can get a Go-autoworks ramhorn for not $100 more.

or get a local fabricators ram for the same ish. nsr tech had rams for 475 + shipping and forged performance sells their manifolds for really good deals. check for them on ebay if you wanna spend your money well. id love to see you use the godspeed and have good results with it to help shut some people up. Iv never had a ebay tubular mani but I have had alot of good experiences with ebay parts.

Some of their parts ''work'' but the manifolds/turbos still aren't up to par and rank with ebay. Well thats all 5 posts since im trial..

eBay is a hit and miss kinda thing. Some may get lucky, most others fail.

if you're wanting budget you're better off with one of the cheap cast log manifolds. never hear anything about them cracking. you can pick em up used for 100 or less. not much more then that new if i remember.

your better off with a name brand cast log like blox, inlinepro vs one of those thin walled tubular units. Even an ebay cast log would do a better job

A few guys locally have them on nissans.. - basically with any of these manifolds you can anticipate- having to drill out bolt holes larger, as it will never fit perfect, and if you go ram horn style, try to brace the manifold to support the tubular design.

Log manifolds are traditionally more "trustworthy". as said above

Dont waste your money on it. The wastegate flanges are usually the first thing to crack or fall off while driving.. Yes you can get it rewelded but it will just happen again. Why cheap out on something so important?

Known to crack at the welds. Would have to re-enforce the welds before install .
