It doesn't look like ss autochrome to me...

There are some kind of braces on the sides of this one, plus the flange looks different than ss..

It doesn't have any bracing though, that would scare me

I would weld some braces on the bottom so it doesn't crack..

if it is the ssautochrome mani. i e-mailed that guy and he saids it has a life time warranty for cracks. i would sent it back it the one i had cracked. that is easy for me because i live in sc and will drive there and f... him up. i think they fitted the cracking problem but would like to here more about that company because they do have some good deals.

You guys are blind. It looks more like a Spark Racing Manifold.

You can tell just by looking at the tabs welded on the runners and the flanges for the block, also with the larger Tubing for the wastegate..ALso, weld marks left on the runners. SS auto Chrome doesnt have all this description mention about the above manifold. How much is the manifold selling for?

Its a Spark Racing, no doubt about it.

The guy from the shop told me it was from peak performance.
But i cant find anything on them. And a friend of mine told me that
peak performance is dynamic autosports in the U.S
But i cant find anything on this also

overall it looks almost identical to the ss autochrome manifold. I just dont like the design it looks like with all the weight of turbo etc. its just time before it cracks. just my .02. Just spend a little more and get somthing that's going to last you and not screw you over in the end.

just go to the honda-tech search and type in ss autochrome. That's all I got to say!
