Now the first batch had a cracking problem, but that was about a year and a half ago. Since then I think its safe to say they have stepped their game up. Plus a lot of well known shops are also using their manifolds as well so that speaks a lot.

^Yep, I can vouch for this...........The PT74 as seen some HIGH boost with the SS manny on it. We beat that car to death and no cracks at all. Our only concern was the tranny holding up before upgrading it.

I also had to turn the turbo the other way, so now my downpipe makes a big u nearly missing the motor mount.
