The price is low, because the stuff is not a name brand. Its more of a gamble, and not one that I would not risk.

 

if you feel like throwing away money and prob destroying your motor, buy it.

on the manifold cracking happens with ssac . and in one instance that i saw here on ht a turbo cracked in 2

 

I guess SS autochrome changed the design on the manifold and is having success with it. I'd rather just get a manifold that I know can withstand the beating.....too expensive to gamble

 

You would have to purchase an intercooler and blow off valve still.

What about the wastegate?? Or is that built into the turbo??

 

and on top of the other hardware, you still need fuel management, which will get pretty expensive, too, since it also needs to be tuned once you're done installing stuff. it may only cost you several hundred bucks to get the turbo mounted on the car, but you still need to run oil lines, pipe the turbo into your intake, plumb the intercooler if you want to run one, and of course major fuel management. you'll still have a lot of money to spend.
