HAHAHAHA it's going to melt at the corners if it's ran too hard. Trust me squares and heat don't agree.

Can we say Ghetto?

I can't believe someone took the time to fab that! I wonder what it weighs in and of itself...

i've seen budget turbo systems before on hondas, but this takes it.

gotta love the superman theme on the valve cover.

I really don't see much difference between it and a log style manifold, if you went to the trouble of sandwiching a thick ~1/2" flange with some transition-to-plenum porting. In theory, the longer exhaust "port" created by the log manifold helps out with anti-reversion, but with no comparison dynos you can't really tell how much good it does. As soon as you hit the log, *turbulence*.

Both a log style and that... interesting creation... are constant pressure designs. Good for low boost, not what you get your peak power from.

What you say makes sense, but that whole flat wall thing that's at the end of the exhaust flow creates even more turbulance & thus focusing the already high heat situation into a very nasty flow and unequal pressure problem that would cause cracks sooner than if with a log. with all this I'd say it would probably spool very quickly then fall on it's face until the wastegate opened to relieve some of the pressure. Either way a very bad idea. At least a log style trys to speed alond the flow with rounded ducting. It appears to be stainless too so there goes durabilty. I hope that made sense.
