Default Any one using this manifold?

Hi everyone. I want to know if anyone is running this manifold? I know some hold up and others don't, but I realy want to run a ramhorn.
Also, I have been running a t3 off a 84' 300zx at 10psi, and I'm going to install a .50 trim t3/t4. I'd like to know how many psi on the t3/t4 would equal the 10psi on the t3.

I have to question the wall thickness and materials used. Cyl. 2 and 3 are not weld el's. I'm wondering if its cut to appear to look like a sch. built mani or not. JUNK....china pride ching chong right there. Don't be surprised when it cracks.

I apreciate the comments. But don't you guys think this one would be made a little better then the normal ones, since it's made for a 50mm wastegate. Instead of the ones that are made for a 35, 38mm wastegate?

Well, as far as clearance between the wastegate and the turbo. I'm gonna cut off the wastegate pipe on the ramhorn and have a 90 degree bend welded on along with a 38mm wastegate flange so it can be a/c compatible.

lol it's not that easy FYI

I guessing by your responses that you already purchased this manifold?

I say sell it, buy a nice tubular or if you can't afford it get it a cast manifold

yeah i'm not sure what your intentions were for this post. You wanted peoples opinion and everyone has told you its junk, yet you still try n defend it or make compromises. To me, your decision was made before you even made this post. And i'm sorry but you're not going to get any support from people on here to help you feel good about running this manifold.

The manifold will work don't get me wrong. Just don't expect it to last and be prepared to constantly take it off the motor for repairs.

dont use that kind of manifold. i posted something similar to this when some one asked about the ram horn manifold. but these are very poorly made and are of low quality, they will crack eventually. dont go boost if u arent going to buy quality parts
