Hey guys just FYI...I know a guy who gave it the what the hell and bought an ebay manifold figuring as long as its okay quality metal, his welder could fix any leaks or reweld the joints. He took it to his welders shop and the welders professional response was "wow, it looks good" Stainless steel was of great quality and the welds were superior to many of the production models that are sold. I cant guarantee the same for every manifold, but there are definitely the pick of the litter out there.

I wish trhey had more pics. My friend bought one of those XSPower Manifolds. It had nice big runners and welds were good. But the wastgate flange was only 3/4 welded on. And if you looked through the turbo flange you couldnt see. One of the runners was blocking it. It wasnt cut. Maybe this one is different IDK. SFP for me. But you never know. This could be the greatest never cracking highest flowing manifold ever. But I doubt it.

Personally, If I needed to get a new Manifold (which I might as I need to change my GT25 flange to a T4 for the new turbo that I have)...

I would get the one offered by Wasabi...

Tell me this is not the sexiest manifold that you have ever seen...

I love the dual pipes going into the WG and the supports... that looks like a mean *** mani.

Who has experience here with Wasabi Manifolds? I know there was a guy with one of there intake manifolds but what about the exhaust.

That is the actual price, I have spoken with him but shipping is like $150. My aunt lives in Bangkok and she gets free shipping back to the states through her company, in about 6 mo I am going to buy 3 or 4 of these and have them shipped back if anyone is interested let me know.

I have had experience with 2 SFP manifolds. I actually was friends with one of the head welders there.....stay far AWAY

That is beautiful. It should be in a glass case. Too bad it will miscolor once the heat is applied by the engine.

yeah me too

I did a search on Wasabi at Supraforums and only one guy is running them and a few who did before claim they are crap.

Why do you say that? Ive never seen one crack, I have even seen super expensive Full Race Manifolds crack but no these. Were there support brackets?

What was the price on the Wasabi manifolds? I'm using Fire Fox as a web browser and I don't think some of the info was showing up, as indicated on the top of their index page.

many reasons, including the 2 that I had that cracked and my friends that cracked and that they are made out of mild steel.
They suck

Im not saying this ebay wont crack but at 299 thats ok...but If I pay big $$ for a mani it better not crack. SFP are a bunck of thieves and dont stand behind there product. I used to live down the street from them they have that reputation locally as well

ebay manifolds are not mild steel; i've never seen a turbo manifold made out of mild steel; not a production model anyways...
