Default SpoolinPerformance VS. Neukin

I'm looking into a non-a/c equal length bottom mount manifold. My main concern here is with the welds. I've heard some stories about Neukin not fully penetrating and cracking in spots. For the most part, they are comparible in price and material. If some of those could share some experience with either product, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm really only interested in facts and first hand experience. Not bias opinions. Thanks!

Hey, can u get a pic of your setup? I want to see how the turbo sits on a Neukin A/C setup so I can do my filter. I havent gotten mine yet....another 4 weeks

you shouldnt have any problems with either company, both have years of experiance and tons of satisfied customers.

I'm sure you will be just as happy either way.

Both have lifetime warranties, so if you have a problem with cracking, they will fix it for you. I think both companies make excellent products, so it's really just personal preference.

I never had a ramhorn manifold, but I had a Spoolin log manifold on my boosted B16 with a big ol' SC-61 hanging on it and never had a cracking problem. I've never dealt with Neukin, but I got excellent customer service from Spoolin. My Turbonetics Deltagate didn't clear my valve cover, because I just assumed it would, even though the manifold is designed for use with Tial. So even though it wasn't his fault, he hooked me up with a Tial 38mm at his cost. from me!

I agree, Alex with Neukin has hooked up both my cars and alot of my friends with a great product with no problems but you can't go wrong with Spoolin either. Both good products for the money.

^^don't take it tooo hard, people have their opinions and you don't have to like them. I have a SPoolin mani and i love it....the finish is amazing and the welds are really clean. I haven't fit it yet because its being sent out in order to have a DP made for it from a friend.

Do you have any proof that Neukin is a better choice without a doubt? Or are you being another H-T nutriding bandwagoner?

To the original poster, both are good choices and I think you'll be more than satisfied with either.

I myself have been a loyal spoolin customer for over 3 years, he did 2 different turbo setups for me, and is very cooperative in helping me with any questions that arise phil is a great guy, but neukin seems to also be a quality product

Alex from neukin is great to deal with and keeps in constant contact with you. He was able to fab a manifold for my EF for me to my specs and I couldn't be happier. Also was able to get me a great deal on an SC61.


I have tuned a customers car with a Spoolin manifold and it looked good to me as well but I can attest to Alex's customer service.


Neukin

spoolin great customer service, great product, even though I have no experience with with neukin, I like the look of their manifolds, but either way all these guys use pretty much the same style, and materials, so customer service wins.

who said i was makin a big deal out of it ? i didnt make an argument. i just thought it was a bold statement that has no validity behind it . as i said before. the consumer can choose which company to go with. all in all, its all bout the customer service
