Do a search here for them. There are a few post that shows how the S/S cracked and fell apart. Not all S/S is the same quality. They look pretty but the S/S is low quality. Price out some good S/S and you will then know what a real high quality set would cost.

In the honda world, they are looked at as junk. Ive seen 2 local examples of a turbo header on 240's and they are holding just fine even after 2years of DD and auto X/ drifting.
Mostly they are just called junk, and to stay away from.

I would buy a pair of those...
Only to use a templates to weld my own set up.
I may even reinforce those, but probably not.

Anyway, lots of pics on the web of there products failing......what do you expect for such a low cost product. People will do the labor cheap in other countries, BUT the managers are still penny pinching on materials to fatten their wallets.

It’s not really a question of pinching pennies on the materials, in the case of the manifolds they are right in a lot of ways, it’s actually the construction, construction techniques, design…

I've heard bad about the manifolds themself but also the company behind them sucks. if the item is damaged, faulty from them chances are they are going to tell you oh well fedex is to blame. oh we forgot to weld parts too bad. if you want us to fix them you pay to ship our product that we sent that was defective before you even bought it and then we will hold on to it for about 2-4 weeks before you get it back.
so not only did we get you for the cost of the part we took you for the shipping of the part. then cause the item was damaged before you got it cause it was made bad we will have you pay AGAIN for shipping, plus EVEN MORE time after buying the product that you don't have it. and btw we won't tell you of this when you buy the product you have to find this information on your own.
and this was with a warranty. wonder what happens without the warranty
