Default SS Autochrome.....quality?

I was wondering if anyone has had experience with SS autochrome's turbos, downpipes, manifolds, etc. They're sold on ebay at ridiculous prices....i saw a t3/t4, stainless downpipe and ex manifold, stainless charge pipe, wastegate, and some other stuff for like 600 bucks. BRAND NEW....i read on http://www.turbod16.com that they're manifolds are prone to cracking....let me know wut you guys know and/or think?

theres no arguement that the manifolds crack much easyer than any other i can think of, you can re-enforce it but its still takin a chance.....i hear the turbos suck a dick and blow very very fast, not sure about the dp but you would be much better off to just get some used stuff for about the same price

Yeah there definately not that great as far as turbo manifolds and that stuff. My friend has a header from them and its pretty nice. Definately when doing turbo setups do them right.

The words SSautochrome and quality shouldnt be used in the same sentence.

WDF? ya right, ballers on a budget can get BMC manifolds, or buy a used manifold from a kit out of the classifieds.

ssautochrome sucks...thats it...dont waste your time or money...if you dont have enough money to get good stuff, then wait until you have saved enough

do a search on here and see the many threads about how shitty they are

do yourself and your car a favor and do not buy that ****
