I'm looking around for a KA24DE turbo set up and found this kit online. Just wondering if any guys out there that has used this kit. I'm not even sure if they are still selling it.

The IAP manifold doesnt have the best rep, cracking issues. Id go with the JGS kit personally.

That company is really old, its a good Q if they still make their kits.

I came across an article by Garrett Turbo that there are advantages and disadvantages between log and header (tubular) style manifolds. It's true that log style manifold due resist cracking due to its cast iron construction. however, the tubular style on the other hand may be prone to cracking from temperature changes but does give an even amount of flow.
