yea, from what i've read.....
It is a beautiful manifold though....nice and shiny.
I'd rather have a good quality manifold that won't crack.

it looks as if the designer may know they crack. look at the pic in the lower right hand corner. to me, it looks as if there is a "brace" welded to each runner and the flange.

Except for the wastegate flange's horrible position they look very nice flow wise. I bet if someone welded then up with something a little sturdier thay would be very nice indeed.
