Default critique this guys work

Looking to buy a mani from this guy for my Volvo S70, most likely the mod 1.

What do you guys think of his work/welds?

mod 1 looks good to me, that 5 way merge is pretty cool. How many manifold options do you have?

his work looks good , welds are at 100% pennatration , the only thing that would worry me would be the haze , cus it is verey large , and if the weld area is going to fail it will fail there ,

That's about it unless I go with a newer version of the Volvo cast mani.

Here is the newer cast one vs my cast one.. although mine is lightly ported at the moment, it's just not going to do the job when i put a big turbo on there.

No doubt about this, it's a pro builder,

quality work's here.
flawless weld's on SS at certain place / pic's

if you can afford this manifold, look to me like a great peice, from what I'v seen in pic's, though, they are pic's and you can get pic's of what you want ! Hey!.

Kranked !
