Christ, don't you people read anything on this forum? That manifold is a piece of shit. Everything on eBay regarding manifolds and downpipes are generally pieces of shit, with the exception of the odd HKS/BEGi/ETD private sale. Don't come crying to us in 3 months when your discount chinese POS manifold has cracked in 3 places and you're tired of paying the wrench monkey at Midas to reweld it for you.

i thought obx was made in the us????????????? you really think it will crack????some people in here actually have them and said they work pretty good right????????????????????????????????????????????? ????????????
|
works fine for me eunos
|
the welds are the problem by the way.... not the manifold itself.... so you need not worry about the material :)
|
did you have to do any welding gokou?
|
as of today, not yet.....manifold hasn't cracked on me.... in 3-4 years now :)
|
then why would i need to get a begi one thn???? and i dont want to change my setup with a new mani...the mani i got now looks just like the obx one....but i'm sure obx is betta quality...
|
yea... me and magna have the OBX, and one other person, we have no problems at all, and they're running bigger turbo's than me :)
i think i know what mani ur talking about.... if i could change time i would just get begi or some named brand =( |
if it doesn't crack..i will be happy with it...
|
lol it's not that hard to take out the mani... you'll be fine :) just take it to welder and get it re-welded if it cracks
|
it takes time to take it off...and i have enough of this china mani.....its crack in five different places...in a week....thats a killer....

https://www.miataturbo.net/forum/sho...6&postcount=11 Also, this guy, who said his OBX manifold was holding up great, was complaining after a MONTH that it had cracked 3 times. https://www.miataturbo.net/forum/sho...acked+manifold But hey, what do I know. My BEGi manifold did 7,000 miles since July, including 8 track days. No cracks. 15psi from a GT2554R, dynoed at 219whp on a shitty timing map at Thanksgiving. |
it's almost 2008... i count this as the 4th year :) previous semster was my 3rd year
sorry for the miscommunication o great wun :bowdown: |
add me to the list of my OBX mani is fine

The OBX is flanged for a t3, it's cheap and WILL eventually crack....just as easily as your SSAC stuff WILL crack....and yes Manga's has cracked, and so have various other member's here who have tried it. |
