SSAC, well actually XO2....basically the same type deal just rebadged. I saw your thread about the manifolds, I just didn't give my opinion becuse you said no SSAC. Honestly though, I haven't been running it long enough (only ~600 mi) to have an opinion myself. It came with all hardware needed and the installation was easy, fitment great, so in that respect I think it was a really good deal. We'll just have to see how long it holds up, as I have not reinforced it in any way (except for the heat wrap, haha).
