gotta make sure you do your research on what manifolds are legit before just buying something cheap.. I understand where your coming from. I too like to save money... but there are some things you cant cheap out on

wow that's cheap. How much would it be to get an on-center turbine housing?? If it's even available....

you got a sr20... as with anything for sr20, chances are that mani was probably copied from a RHD setup
