manifold advice?

[SBR_240sx]

We have not had a single one of the new manifolds crack in over a year. The old ones did crack and we replaced every single one that was brought back to us.

^but if I buy a mani from you I might get banned LOL or ppl will hate me haha jk

and the other thing is, you guys only have one manifold out from what I see. I don't really need the extra flange for a wg considering I'm running mine off the o2 housing. So it kinda seems like I might as well just get a nicely ported 2g or something.

Yea some people on here hate me but it doesnt bother me. I just try to answer tech questions and sale the occasional part.

[HiImBrian]

Yea I was kidding about that. Sure some ppl may hate sbr but I was way too lazy to read that whole thread and therefore I don't really know why nor do I really care. But in the end, weather I hate you guys or not, you don't really have a manifold for my specific application. Thanks though.

I'm running a pte 50 trim and I want something big to help spool up.

You want a big manifold or a big turbo? Bigger and longer runners make spoolup worse.

Yep, you want the smallest manifold available to help spoolup.

I meant big ports sorry.

You forgot to add in your warranty disclaimer. It's always entertaining to look at the pictures on Toonerz of SBR manifolds cracking.

Big ports/runners usually equal more lag. Most of the weld-el manifolds out there have bigger inner diameter runners than the outer diameter of the manifold that I had on my car when it 700whp. I have seen some Honda eBay turbo manifolds lately that have runners that are much bigger than the weld-el manifolds, they look like they were made to support 2000whp, but are normally found on 250whp cars. In general, anything before the turbo or after the turbo that is bigger will give less lag, like bigger downpipe/exhaust and bigger air intake pipe and filter. While anything made bigger in the loop from the turbo back to the turbo, will give more lag, like FMIC, intake manifold, ported head, aftermarket intake manifold, etc(except for displacement). I have seen 1000RPM quicker spool on a car from going from a fancy longer runner topmount turbo manifold top to a non-equal length shorties manifold and topend power wasn't any different.

We dont have a " warranty disclamer ". If it cracks bring it back to us and we will give you a new one. Simple as that. Sorry you have a bad opinion of us because the old sales guys " screwed you over ".
