Miata KuStOm Toobular 1.8 ultra rare manifold

This thing served me well over the 2 days I used it and all the hard work has already been done on it. This is great for low boost applications because of all the cracks and warped flange, and since it's stainless steel and tubular you know how ------- awesome it is. I'm looking for an address to ship it to, and I'd be willing to pay up to $15 for one although I'm def open to offers... Please no high balling though

Onto the mani:
I've actually precracked and prewarped it for you so you don't have to go through the trouble yourself!

You can see light through 4/5 here

Again, with this mani you can't run very high b@@st due to all the custom airflow but hey its Stainless Steel so that makes up for it.

Also open to trades for a hardtop, 6ul's but 15x9 only, brand new hoosiers, and possibly others

I was about to totally high-ball you but then I read OP and decided to not break any rulez y0

Jpopsbronco 04-17-2012 07:30 PM

LOL
just to clarify in anticipation to the flood of responses I'm about to get;
This is the same manifold that Faeflora and ajn597 or whatever are selling, mine just has the relief cracks i mean cuts already done.

oldgrayfrog 04-17-2012 08:36 PM

Yeah man these EBay tubular manifolds are pretty awesome, did ya see the ceramic coated one?

Joe Perez 04-17-2012 09:08 PM

Props for most hilarious for-sale description of a crappy manifold ever. :D

JoeTheZoe 04-17-2012 09:29 PM

Those relief cuts look like that new-school wastegate tech...Self-Actuating, Continuously Variable-Gate, or whatever its called.

Proven 100% efficient, as boost rises, so does pressure release...genius! :idea:

colincoon 04-17-2012 09:35 PM

So I DONT need a wastegate if I run this manifold?

Can I bondo in the cracks? If yes pay me $10 and it's a deal.

elesjuan 04-17-2012 10:03 PM

Why can't the china fuckers just use regular god damn steel tubing instead of this garbage stainless crap and build a semi-quality manifold? Shouldn't it cost less to use shitty mild steel than shitty stainless? :confused:

We need to keep this thread handy when the next noob asks if they are decent.

I'd still like to see if I could get one to hold together with my awesome welding skilz. I'd pay shipping to get this POS.

Faeflora 04-18-2012 12:36 AM

Hahahahah!!!!

Best for sale threads ever.

You know this almost looked like sched 40 pipe with the um bronzing.

18psi 04-18-2012 01:13 AM

stein you will probably end up spending as much metal wire for the welding as there is on the manifold.

No, you dont need a wastegate, the manifold is as Joethezoe said: Self-Actuating, Continuously Variable-Gated. For higher boost run more gaskets (less airflow) and less boost run fewer. I recommend no gaskets for maximum wastegate efficiency.

I don't know about bondo but I hear ceramic coatings work great :giggle:

Lol agreed

I love you guys

This post was hilarious :P

99mx5 04-18-2012 04:58 AM

Awesome! I hear those pre-applied cracks are great for controlling boost creep.
GLWS!!

miatauser123 04-18-2012 08:50 AM

If this has never been tracked - CONSIDER IT SOLD!

why, it would cost more, they are probably selling just fine as is.

dliverance 04-20-2012 12:07 AM

I can fix those cracks with bondo right?
