I'm so used to seeing shitty brown *** turbo manifolds. When the pics showed my first though was it was going to be a crazy all motor header. Then bam theres a big *** turbo hanging off it.

it looks nice (i'm not sure I know how to determine how well it flows though) to me the tube going to the BOV looks like it's only going to release pressure coming outta the one port/valve. I know nothing about turbo's and the pressure an release of it all, just seems kinda off?

that's b/c most manifolds are cast iron. cast iron retains heat better, keeping gas velocity higher. low quality SS tends to bend/break under intense heat cycling, esp at the weld. cast iron is more ductile, so i handles heat changes better. but if its a well made piece, it shouldnt have any problems.

Well you proved you don't know much about turbo's
Thats not the BOV, it's the wastegate. Looks like a good manifold to me, similair to the Rev Hard Tubular one my friend had on his DA.
