That is the obx manifold. Which alot of people sell for about $360shipped.

I was about to buy one on ebay thinking it was a impo manifold. But it is really a obx. Replica

well for your information the obx manifold is not braced to hold the weight of the turbo and when it heats up it bends and cracks the nu image manifold is braced to hold the weight of the turbo so it does not break but since u people know so much than u should have already know this. O yeah and the obx manifold is not made by the same people that make the trr manifold.

Alot of us used to run them. Then we leaned away from them because of cracking. I would look into a full-race manifold. Thats what im running

Bracing or no bracing the manifold is still made of cheap material. Hell, for 600 bucks i'd buy a lovefab or even something like a rev hard log.

The funny part is that even if the manifold is braced and doesn't crack, it still sucks ****. The wastegate placement is horrendous. It literally couldn't be any worse, it bleeds off of one runner only and has horrible positioning. Good luck avoiding boost creap and spikes with that crappy *** manifold.

Full-Race
TinkerFab
RevHard
SFP
HyTech
etc etc...

How do you think wastegate bleeding off at the collector is the same as one runner? Check you facts first please. Since I don't know how to post a picture I'll be happy to send anyone a picture with the new version of the manifold....and definately not the same as OBX. With a guarantee not to crack. Stop by the shop to see them on all of the cars. No cracks with new revision of the manifolds. The OBX ones by the way does crack.

Also the manifold that you see in those previous post, aren't our manifolds. They are either meng mani or OBX.

Well for your information most people that run that same manifold don't have problems with the turbo fallin off. It's jus when they pop ther hood they see there wastegate hangin on by the vacuum line. Is there anything bracing the wastegate...NO!!! And yes they are all made by the same people. Period.

Looks to me like (and it is) the same manifold on your site, right? Sounds like another Nuimage scam to me *shrugs*. $599 for that manifold? I wonder what else they overprice, hmmm???

ahh..humm. Clears throat for loud shout.

"**** InLINE PRO"

I know a few people running this mani. I almost bought it my damn self. (trr) and it is no way similar to the obx or the old version.

Ignorant band wagon *****. I know that like any other forum, you have dick riders...hope you guys got your latex!


Hey 10secr33.....i am curious what you're referring to? As another NuImage scam. I mean jealousy is a mothafucka... and it looks like you got scammed with the ugly *** Am.Staff. in your avatar-


p.s who needs gloves

There's that bandwagon passing you by again, maybe if you ask nice John will let you pay in food stamps (unless all you got is Goverment cheese, you're from Chesapeake right?).

If you only had a clue, you'd still only have a clue. and it looks like you got scammed with the ugly *** Am.Staff. in your avatar- Pure pitbull, no need to correct you anymore but I have to teach. This (Dibo) is his father , and is probably one of the best studs in the U.S.


p.s who needs gloves </TD></TR></TABLE> He dosen't need gloves, he's got a keyboard and a third grade education.

I got some scams for you:

I know this kid who was a loyal customer at NuImage awhile back.
He dropped his car off for some work, and when he went to pick it up it was broken into (missing various parts).
This happened twice to him, and his friends at Nuimage didn't have any clue what happened??? Thank God they're not my friends
And you see all the customer cars that Inline Pro spits out? Where are all the Nuimage customer cars? Thats right, they're too busy ripping them off to build cars.
People in Northern Virginia know what's going on (first hand or through friends).
