Default Sohc Turbo Manifold

Hey guys I found this manifold on ebay and was wondering what you all reckon. The quality looks very good to me What do think about the performance of this configuration? I'm looking for a good manifold at a resonable price, this might be it. What are your thoughts?

Check it out

i like the look of that one better too, but i have heard bad things. Do a search for it, i think i remember reading a write up about it and something about it cracking... be weary of ebay... that first one looks of good quality to me though. JMHO.

Looks fine, but I haven't heard of the company before. For not much more you can get a spoolin performance manifold or a crp turbo manifold and those guys you can trust.

Yeah just get on Homemadeturbo.com and search through the forums there are a lot of guys that make those manifold and they are higher quality than those two just shown combined. NO SSAUTO. All of their Nissan stuff and turbos are good but the Honda manifolds suck.

You'd be better off starting from scratch than going with ssauto.

I would do the same. I was going to go with one of those manifolds before I got a good deal on the revhard manifold. And I think they're cheaper than the one on ebay.
