For anyone who cares im just spreading the word. I already posted this on a dif forum but ill post here also.

I would just like to start off by saying this thing is fuckin beautiful.
Came in a few days ago and this is really first chance i had to look at it since i had no electricity for like a week.

Overall i am extremely impressed with this and glad i got in on first group. The welds throughout the whole manifold are damn near flawless(as you can see in the last pic) and im impressed with the full penetration on every single one of them. I honestly couldnt find anything wrong with this manifold which seems to be indestructablebut did notice one thing. This thing is pretty damn heavy which i expected it to be. I dont think the stock studs will have a problem holding this but i will use apr studs and brace it anyway just to be on the safe side.
All in all i couldnt be more impressed, so for the people having doubts or whatever, i suggest you put those aside because this thing is a great deal especially when compared to the full-race one.

I aint been home for a week since i had no power so i didnt know it was there.
It was 1400. T4 flange and requires 60mm wastegate but i believe he can put any flange you need on there. Not sure if 1400 is still pricing as i was among the first to drop my dimes which was the introductory price at the time. But it rivals full-race in quality and has lifetime warranty.
Anto... very insultin what you said about my feets... but i cant help but laugh, lol.

That thing's beastly. The collector welds are better, because most shops buy the collector and weld the rest themselves (so the collector's machine welded).
Not a bad price either... so where's the build thread? I wanna see what you're throwin on there :)

Its all good. To compare pricing, hmmm... full-race sells their twin scroll rb25 mani at 2300.
There will be no build thread since my car is coming along too slowly for anyone to remember anything i post and i have no time. Plus I is broke these days. But if yall like the mani then talk to cody up at lovefab and he can answere all your tech questions and current price inquiries. No i dont work for them, lol. http://www.lovefab.com/html/rbmani.html
