    As said, you get what you pay for. I would never get it.

    And the wastegate placement is very poor.

    I've had big problems with Ram horn style manifolds. My first one was a ebay one which fell apart after 3 months. then i had a custom one made up in replica of the ebay one which lasted bit over 6 months which i repaired and then failed after another 6 months.

    I then purchased one of these below and i havent had a peep out of it since i got it and its been well over a year.


    Get a good mani and you wont regret the money spent.

    Full race ramhorns go for $1000 usd. Custom is always expensive as its always a 1 off/first time. Hopefully the guy doing it for you is good.

    What WG are you going to use? Setup?
