There are real versions of that manifold and there are rip-off versions of that manifold. From the one picture, i cant tell which you have.

i have that same manifold. had it on for about 2+ months and it's still together working fine. i'd recommend turning the wastegate flange a bit so that the turbo can sit flush. that's the only problem i've had with mine so far.

its an xs power mani, its going to break on the welds, unless you reinforce it.

I have had that manifold on my setup for over a year. It will crack in various spots with no bracing. But once braced, it has been a very good manifold for me. Just a good solid brace from the block to the turbo to support the bulk of the weight is all thats needed.
