i bought one for 100.00 its works well i had to remove the stock oil catch can and put an extention on the turbo outlet. ive had it for about 8 months hasnt cracked yet.

When you buy ebay, most of the time you get a SS Autochrome, or SSAC product. Some of their stuff is OK, some of it has problems (fitment, cracking, etc). Bascially weigh that against the price of a Tomei Expreme. If it's worth it for you to have to pull the manifold again (and possibly again after that), and save some cash, go ahead and get the cheap stuff (I see Megan Racing manifolds as being a step above ebay, but a step below Tomei/HKS/etc, and 2 steps below Full-Race). If you'd rather just do it once, get the Tomei (which comes with new gaskets, hardware, heat wrap, etc) and call it a day.

ive been running a ebay manifold for awhile now...fits perfect and the quality looks nice and seems nice.. i would recommend it but however it is said to be proven that they do not add any gains in hp over the stock manifold

ok thanks alot...ill be sure to put my money into something else for right now. keep on keepin on!!!

well..for the price they arent a bad deal...like i said, i heard a few times that the dont give any gains in hp..mostly for looks..i like how they look way more than stock when that hood is popped and im sure everybody else does..if you arent looking for EVERY single ounce of power you can get then i would get it cuz like i said its cheap..otherwise just go with full race manifold which will run you a nice coin

I like my Megan. Got it for $140. Been using it over 6 months now. If it breaks, ill put stock back on and till i can afford top mount.
