Appears to be some guy with a youtube channel and GeoCities store page. Miata turbo manifold for only $200 (eventually)!

Too bad there aren't several reputable vendors and fabricators that could have provided a manifold. Oh, wait...

Sure, you could go with a reputable vendor, but where will you get your lorem ipsum fix?

$200 is not going to buy you a manifold that will work on a race track

Anyone who buys a turbo manifold off a guy because he has a YouTube channel like that deserves to lose all of his money...

Hey @shuiend you're missing the boat.

Apparently it doesn't buy a manifold that works on the street either.

To be fair, based on this thread, it appears $200 doesn't buy you a manifold at all

I don't even want to be on this boat. It isn't worth it for me.
