Re: (Schister66)
Looks like a ghetto attempt at "virtually" creating more of a merge collector... Id probably rock the mani, but as for the Great pyrimid??? I dont know... id have to see how well it was integrated, welded, or whatever to the manifold. cause if that thing broke off, or apiece or whatever...BAD THINGS MAN- BAD THINGS.
Im not knocking it and understand the thinking behind it (i think), but....
Anyway itl probably be cool...

Re: (Schister66)
I see no welds holding it into place so i'm assuming they are on the other side but in any case i would say use it. just hope the metal don't get too hot in their and melt off even a small piece of metel and take out your exhaust wheel

Looks like a well-worn SSAC collector with a piece of petrified dung stuck to it. The thing is triangular in shape.... That doesn't make sense. There are a few other curious hunks of metal? attached to the flange itself, too.
Also note the cracks on the pipes near the ends.

Lol, that's EXACTLY what I thought when I saw it! What are those things called anyway? They're like compressed incense stick material.
