Default Turbo manifold

I need some advise on what manifold are you guys using. I just dont know where to go to get a decent manifold that won't cost $1500 and fit.

For mine, I purchased an ebay one, reinforced the welds, ceramic coated it and called it a day. It's been holding 450 wheel ever since without a single problem. Also put a T3 plate on it with a V-band wastegate flange.

Hi, i have seen a couple local cars in my area, running the cx racing thick ss manifold. The welding quality on it seem good. Just smooth out the runners a bit, and mount your turbo and wastegate and go! btw i believe it fits either a 40mm gate or 50. Borg warner and precision turbos sound deep with these manifolds Gl

CX Racing works as long as you clean up the ports, test fitment and ceramic coat.

I agree with the other guy, CX Racing has great quality and you can buy it for a reasonable price.

The CX one you are talking about is the old one or the new version?
