that is the worst designed turbo manifold i think I have ever seen. So the wastegate relieves one runner? BRILLIANT!

fail.

it's actually hard to tell from the pics whether or not the wastegate placement is on the last runner or it goes underneath.

you would think after so many years of research, and trial and error new companies comming out will take advantage of the research that others have done, and realized that those designs are not popular, and good either. what a waste. if you want a good cast manifold checkout blox and inline pro.

lol. everyone is so appalled to see that wastegate placement. like the drag mani hasnt been around forever. granted maybe not the best design but its not like str are some retards that are using some uniquely retarded design. im sure that mani would be fine with a good wastegate on it.
