FI what can you say about your product being you have tubular manifolds? I've seen others where there more prone to cracking over typical turbo manifold which is different in everyway. Material, length, and gauge of the walls. But others are obvious not The quality your company.

These are cast manifolds, they're just made out of stainless steel rather than iron.

They're not tubular in the sense that they are made out of tubes welded together.

It was always the welds that cracked anyway, I'm fairly certain.

I am pretty sure you hit the nail right on the head here however I am sure Tony will chime in further.

Gottcha. I'm so on the fence of getting this. But personally if I go FI I won't track no more until I can build the motor. That way I can be more confident knowing my motor will hold up better. Course I would only run low boost.

I was browsing around last night and I noticed that these manifolds look eerily similar to the greddy cast manifolds... Is there any difference between these and the greddy ones (in design)?

I realize that these have vbands and look nicer but was just curious as to what design testing was done tony could you guys get a little more technical on why you chose this design style?

Not trying to speak for Tony but just looking at the design of these manifolds they will have superior flow to the T25 manifolds that we have on our kits .

There a work of art
elperuano and m3chhawk like this.

If you look at the runner design details, particularly diameter and length, they really aren't that similar to the greddy manifolds. Without being equal length or some other radically different design, they are destined to resemble every other manifold because they're all doing the same job.

It's like saying one tire looks like another because they're both round and made of (mostly) rubber... "Well, yes...." I would say in response.

Wow, looks incredible, I've never cared about a TT kit but, this might just be the one.

Known for the great quality for the exhaust, I have no doubts about the quality of this product.

Estimated price?

Being a total noob at this topic, how does this affect warranty? Can I still take it to Nissan to service? Will the car break down sooner from wear and tear?
