I bought an obx manifold off of ebay. The head flange was so bent that my local machine shop said there was nothing they could do to fix it. Luckily, the vendor I bought it from gave me a full refund. I guess all of their manifolds in stock were bent.

Yeah that's what I heard. The OBX manifolds just don't fit that well.. I'd either buy the Dezod manifold (once it's complete) or the HKS manifold. There really isn't anything else out there that spices my appetite.

I like the HKS manifold because it's cast. That thing is very reliable and won't be cracking anytime on you soon so how could you resist? The Dezod manifold is taking a proven HKS manifold and adding much more flow so it's a tossup. But Dezod and I will be making tests and adjusting the new manifold according.

T04E? isn't that too big of a turbo for a small D17engine?
