Just wondering? Thats the mani I'll be getting with my Turbo setup and was wondering if anyone had any info on it.

SEARCH GODDAMNIT!

I usually don't freak out and talk about searching but people have been yapping about the Meng/Spark/Other 50 taiwanese companies that make these things non-stop for weeks.

They apparently break and constantly need re-welding. If anybody else asks I'm going to choke your ***.

its a couple posts down

in summary:
good cheap design
might be prone to cracking if not stabilized.
look to alternative manifolds if worried about cracking
and not easily accesible to a tig welder.ie inlinePRO

Elite Hatch

I have had the manifold for a while now...60-1 t3/t4 not braced what so ever. No cracks no problems, overall a great manifold.

Erik B

Aw Hatch chill the hell out. I did a search and found one post talking about it. If you don't like it don't ******* read it. I hate when people see "newbie" or whatever it says under my name and think I'm some 12 year old kid who has never posted on a site before. I asked a simple question...thats it. I hate people like you. Your the kind of people that make people like me not wanna come back here.
"HAS ANYONE HEARD OF A MENG MANI?" ....there you go I'd love to see you try and choke me...lil dude.

Anyways to the guys who gave me some info thanks alot guys....

hey chris have you heard of a manifold called the meng or something, is it any good?

Smashback

heh, just for mr. erik b aka i'm going for the most locked threads in one day record...

MENG rocks. I heard it's the best and I think you should buy it. You're right, there haven't been at least 4 threads about it this week. It might have been about Spark manifolds, which is the same damn thing.

I'm not gonna post any tough guy **** in here though, because I know somebody will dust off the "Fighiting on the Internet is like winning the Special Olympics" pic lol.

I was just being funny though in my post above, but if you get stupid, you still might get choked


Here we go...so people don't get confused, a running list of people with the same manifold:


Meng
Spark
Nu Image
OBX
Type R Racing

We have our own version of that manifold. Guaranteed not to crack after we modified it. Try us out. check out the site.

Foozball26

these manifolds are so good I use all of them at once to increase flow

buy one of each to make mad power

Elite Hatch

I have the type r racing modified manifold...thats why mine hasnt cracked if you all say the others crack so easy. I would def go with the Type R Racing version..its flanged better as well as being stronger

tony1

How is it "flanged better" and stronger? Explain the benefits of yours rather than telling everyone it's better with no explanation...

94TealGSR

You say "check out the site" like it has more info, but all I can see is a picture of the thing?

TREVER

in the pic the flange looks the same as every other meng manifold I have ever seen.

this mani is POS taiwain special. it costs like 59 dollars and another 25 to import. its such pos. if i want a good manifold and are going with custom piping and intercooler i can set u up with something good, or ask tony1... the only thing about tony is he'll end up making ur car run 8's...

Smashback

w00t!

Erik B

Well tony1 is the one thats gonna build my **** and this is the mani I'm getting from him. If he tells me there's something better I'll do it......but if this is the mani he thinks I should run then thats just what I'll run......and I have no problem him building me a 8 sec car too.....

espanol

If you want a bad *** manifold go with the Full race manifold...You won't be able to get your power steering, but who needs power steering...(i do)

b18bturbo

IT exactly the same the wg port is different maybe its flanged different but looks to be the same to me tony

google

no doubt FFGeoff mani are baddass but there loot too. Rev Hard are sweet a lot better then the Tai speicals. Everyone is selling those bastards with their name on them... Inlines arent bad either, not the best looking but im guessing there a little stronger then the stainless tai's. Another thing about the Stainless ones these in specific if u decide to go with a bigger turbo like 60-1 62-1 or something like that ur going to crack it unless u make a bracket (too Heavy). Look into something else. Not trying to be that much of a dick but i think u can defin find better for the price..

I have a 60-1 .63a/r and so does 3 of my friends with the trr manifold. No cracks

TREVER

can you amswer Tony's question? I'm curious

tony1

They always seem to avoid my questions when something seems shady...

Boostfed

Damn it's only obvious that **** says Type R YO!!!!!!!! Ya ain't know? Man if Jotech put some Type R stickers on ya'll be in the 7's already.

K20Ahondas

the flanges are designed differently. We are not going to give out the secret. But this is why it doesn't crack anymore. It used to until we came out with the new design flanges.

InfamousRS

So I should buy your manfiold based on a single picture (with no info), and your "secret" to what makes it better than the others?
