read on som of the other nissan specific forums boost dresigns is over.

nico kicked them from being sponsors

they sent the crapiest looking manifold ever to a customer, looks like it was super glued together, they have also been having extra long delays on parts that they dont even make, suck as haedgaskets etc.

Hmmm, I guess this is another "no-no" turbo setup. Damn I guess I got to stop trying to go cheap and actually just buy a real quality turbo setup such as HKS, Greddy, etc...

Sounds like a good idea, but in another post some people told me to stay away from ssautochrome. If you've had previous good experience with ssautochrome, please enlighten me with their products, thanks. Oh, and this is the kit I wanted from ssautochrome http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW, what do you think?

the newer ss autochrome manifolds arent as bad. all tubular manifolds will crack over time. for the pice ou cant beat it.

go for it i would say, they have new bracing and the bottom mount manifolds arent the ones that are as pronce to cracking.

EDIT
i wouldt get th whole kit from them, just the manifold, but you could see what things your ognna need to get from that kit.
