Again this is not bashing gtm in any way but I just wanted to let people know that I tried to place an order through another company to get a part from gtm for my existing turbo kit. To make a long story short, I had to request a refund due to gtm not being able to fulfill the order. Todd at vivid racing is a great guy and did everything he told he was going to do if gtm did not come through so again I'm needing another exhaust manifold.... I know I can have my existing one welded but would prefer a new one just for peace of mind. My new motor now has almost 3k miles and smooth as butter..
I feel you on this topic as i also had cracked manifolds and tried to purchase replacement with no luck so i just had to have them welded and coated. The welder i use did a great job and put extra metal in the areas where they were crack. They came out good and i just hope they hold up.
