i found a hairline crack on the top of my turbo manifold....but, when i took it off to get ready to get it welded...me and my buddy found soo many cracks you can see light shining in from the outside!!! NO WONDER BOOST FOR THE LAST WEEK OR TWO HAS BEEN SOO LAGGY SINCE I HIT 20LBS!

ics in next post:

 

Holy ****, must see pics. What manifold btw?

 

thread is useless..

oh wait pics are coming

 

 

totally sorry i didn't tell you guys...it's the megan racing manifold.... my buddy told me to shoot them an email...maybe they will help with something like reimbursment or something, i mean, i didn't abuse the system or anything...downpipe is damn sturdy...just turbo manifold is shitty, i also found the runners to stick out inside the manifold...which goes to give me reason why before the crack it was already a tiny bit laggier than most T25 setups.... now i dont even hit 20lbs until 5000-6000RPM which is geyyy

 

I doubt they will, alot of people that have used that manifold have had it crack on them, its kinda shitty unless properly braced, even then, you never know.

 

yeah....worth a try though, i doubt anyone else has tried shooting them an email

i've had this manifold for over 3 years now...i believe this would have been my 4th....no problems until as of late last week or so? i believe a bit before my meth kit install

 

 

maybe post these pics in a sticky for the noobs to see what an ebay manifold is all about?

 

and adjust your thread title so it's identifiable, like: Megan Manifold has more cracks than... (insert humor)

btw- everybody knows you CAN mod your thread title by double clicking it- right?

 

i know.... i was wondering why it was soo g'damn laggy!

+1.... i'm most likely gonna temporarily weld this until i can afford a better manifold

no, i tried, it didn't work? maybe because you're a subscriber?

 

Ching, chong, meeeeoooooooooooow CRACK :-)

Mild steel FTW!!

 

that's mild stainless steel

 

Rofl :-)

 

How did you not hear that? You really did not know there was a problem? Were your eyes tearing? Did you have to turn the radio up more than usual?

 

happens weld brace drive on for a 100$ manifold i think it works fine. If someone made a beter one i could use with my DP and 16g for a decent price i would buy it though.

 

I don't think a brace can fix that.....kinda like "cant fix stupid"... "can't fix tin foil manifolds"

 

+1.... i think i'll be in the market for another manifold now...anyone have any idea which one would fit fairly okay with the megan racing dp? the d/p holds down pretty well compared to the turbo manifold

 

20 lbs of boost? really?

 

yes.....would u like a video after i temporarily fix it? lol
