Default OBX turbo manifold

I just bought a t3/to4e turbo by turbonetics. Now i need a turbo manifold. My turbo is externally gated, and i was thinking this guy http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...&rd=1
Would this suit me well, my friend was telling me that obx is ****, but as of now i am still unbiased. So any inqueries? Also if not what other mani's do you recommend for around 200$? It has to be externally gated and t3t4 hybrid compatable flange?

obx will break, and who knows what damage that will cause. Do yourself a favor and buy something that will hold.

Buy on of these https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1079910

If you want a mani that looks cool. OBX is not it, you will only get made fun of by any honda guy that knows anything.

here go to http://www.teamrice.org Most of the fast cars here in hawaii used to run the obx/ss autocrhome manifolds. A ek with a b18c5 made 685 hp and its a street car. If you want the best get a full-race kit.
