Schedule 10 or 40 for turbo manifold?

I've been looking around mcmaster.com for 304ss weld els to build my turbo manifold. I wondering if I really need the schedule 40 wall thickness, or can I get away with schedule 10?

Might as well use 40. The weight and cost savings are small, and the thinner walls are not as strong.

I have some schedule 10 at home now and its pretty heavy stuff. I'm using it to make some audi manifolds. I know of a few guys using it on hondas and they are making out ok with it. It should be alot easier to work with then the schedule 40.
