#255219 I heard to stay away from those manifolds, and ebay brand can end up costing you more in the end. If you do upgrades pay the extra cash.

Yep. The cast one's should be good. On the stainless one's, you hear alot of people complain about welds breaking, then you have the one odd person who has had no trouble out of theirs.

Every once in a blue moon, someone will say the cast manifolds like this

aren't any good because the waste gate only sees exhaust from one runner.

From what I've heard when you start getting into higher boost the waste gate placement on those can be problematic. But for a good solid street set up ... shouldn't be a problem.
