They claim 50 mm diameter and 2.9mm thickness..Is this manifold worth purchasing? and what are the pros and cons, obivously slim radiator and no PS..... not the highest quality steel....but what else am I missing...I would like to know so I dont make a dumb purchase...

 

thats not a ram horn manifold, also that manifold i here has alot of hood clerance problems

 

Looks like the OneFab manifold ripoff. Made by OBX or is it SSAutoChrome... Doesn't matter...


It's crap.

 

but its pretty

 

Those newer SSautopoopers still break.The only ebay/CDM manifold that doesnt break is the OBX ramhorn and its not really cheap.

 

No Hood clearance issue, even in a CRX.
But they still crack.

 

ANY manifold will crack if the turbo is not properly supported. You have to build a support that will hold the turbo up and not allow it's to put it's weight on the manifold. if you don't it will CRACK eventually no matter who made it.

 

anyone have a link to a broken one just like that?

 

I have a 1fab type One (the original that the one pictured is copied from) and i have no clearance issues in my '00 civic.

it did however crack

that'll still crack over time

 

They crack.

 

why don't you try it and let us know. i haven't read any stories about that particular manifold yet.

 

i have one for sale if you want to try a 1-fab with a 38mm wastegate and t3 flange 600 obo

My Full-Race top mount hasnt cracked and I dont have the turbo supported...... I dont hear of many Full-Race manifolds cracking

 

i wouldn't get it..... its a cheap knock-off that looks pretty but will only fail you in the end!

 

It looks like ssautocrap

i don't see many quality (lovefab, full-race, and other comparable manifolds) break. i never have had problems with any of mine, and even if it did break it would take WWAAYY longer than it would for a cheap thin walled mani like that.

 

well guys what are some other quality equal length manifolds besides 1fab and full-race. don't get me wrong i love FR but can't afford $1k for a manifold

Er....neukin, spoolin, heard good things about TurboJesse, etc..

On topic: I wouldn't buy that crap. Save and get a better mani.

 

If you can get the mani for a steal of a deal, then get it and make some type of brace for the turbo. I have personal seen a couple big brand name companies, that the manifolds crack as well.

 

Full-Race manifolds don't break. I think i've heard of one that had a small crack and it was a long time ago and since then that issue has been fixed. end of story.

If you don't want to payl Full-Prices then just go with Peakboost. Their stuff is high quality as well.

 

JG Fab is good too. He's finally getting caught up and the lead time's are bad.
