It was locked though. If you are looking for the pics (they're down), PM opto_isolator. He's cool, I'm sure he'd hook you up.

Mike says that they are making me a new one, that he is making it personally, and that he is going to send me pictures before sending anything out. Its a shame that they couldn't do this last time - I asked for photos on numerous occasions, but none were sent.
I am giving them the benefit of the doubt at the moment. When I receive either photos or the acutal manifold I will post photos, they will be the first thing I post, with an updated review of everything. I am hoping that they actually get it right this time. Wish me luck...

Rep Power: 344 those welds look like a child did them. I mean i only took a very brief welding course in HS, but i think i could do a better job than that.....wow.
I really hope all the kits don't look like that, its not very safe to put something like that on your car.

those dudes laughed at me cause of how the manifold was welded and assembled...
but oh well ... it works.
OsoBoosted. the NRG guys are knowledgeable and I would feel the same if I saw that manifold for the first time.
Think about it, most of us at Exospeed(possibly the NRG guys too) have been in the scene since it first started back in the late 80s. we have seen manifolds develop in the mid 90s with the DRAG and REVHARD tubulars then to the Cast, then back to the new style Equal length tubular styles that are out there today, such as Full-Race and Rev Hard.
What ticks me off is that a company would produce parts that are not of quality and let it go out of its doors. At $500-800 on a manifold, it better be a good one and flawless. I would expect a $200 manifold to be this quality but its just unbelievable that something like this is made.
We have built custom turbo setups for customers that just want a basic streetable t3 setup to all out race setups using turbos such as a pt71. What is even more ridiculous is that this kit costs as much as what we have put together for an all out race turbo setup.
Makes us want to start R&D on a turbo kit of our own. If we do it'll be parts that are worth your money and top notch brand name parts.
