what makes this manifold any different then any other manifold in Thailand, because it comes with a v band w/g flange?

the flange is still too far angled to fit any respectable size turbo on there, i bought one of these piece of s***s one time and my damn stock turbo wouldnt even clear the valve covers.

Why not just man up and buy a nice one? You realize how many man hours it takes to fab up and produce a nice manifold?

I had no intentions of purchasing this manifold. I was just posting it up......Im regreting it now..And yes im sure it takes about 3-4 weeks to make a manifold...the right way.
