dont go through all the pain of swapping the factory one out,just to put a tin-foil mani thats gonna crack in a month...if you ask me the best bang for your buck is a meganracing, heavythrottle ships em for $170 iv been rockin on for a while , no complaints here

agreed, megan is what I and alot of my customers run, good part for the price. they do eventually crack in certain cases, but some never crack. I would stray from ssautochrome, I haven't seen one on an sr, but I used to have one on my old spec v and it was a piece of ****.

megan ftw.

the cast iron factory manifold is the best period.

- the runners are split from the factory. - great heat absorption- it will never crack- it has short runners for less turbo lag.

SS is bad, and megan does crack, sometimes the insides have left over chunks in them.

Hone and swain your stock manifold for better flow.and get a gt2871r.

I'll sell you my megan mani and Gt2871R for $900. They have 4000 miles on them and are in good shape. I will replace them with a tomie bottom mount and a GT3076R WG in .64ar. A little more laggy but 150 more whp. I'm looking for 500+ with cams and intake.

sorry the build has taken me to the end of the road for now. was looking into megan manifold, but I should save and get an upgrade when I am ready for a larger turbo.
