Opinion on this manifold

[JDMPlaya]

Hey guys

I offered 120 shipped on the manifold do you think it's worth it?

Thanks

 

[reckedracing]

well, its not pretty but if you can't fab it yourself then its worth it
you can always grind the welds down a bit and hit it off with some high temp paint to clean it up a lil more if you have a show quality car...

 

[JDMPlaya]

No I don't have a show qaulity car, Just peicin the finishing my peices for my turbo set up

 

[posol]

looks like a t3 flange....

and it also looks like its ready to fall off... lol

 

[JDMPlaya]

yea its a t3 flange, I can't tell it about to fall off

 

[JDMPlaya]

so.. Yay or Nay?

 

[reckedracing]

WELL, YOU CAN ALWAYS TAKE IT to a shop and get it rewelding

is it custom fab? or is it based on some pro design?

sorry bout caps

 

[JDMPlaya]

I'm thinking custom fab, but I don't want to pay 120 then have it re welded.

 

[reckedracing]

so ask them if it leaks?

or wait for a diffrent one?

 

[cycloneb18c3]

I wouldnt...

 

[JDMPlaya]

yea I think I'm going to wait

no, not worth it. I can weld better than that drunk, and I'm not the worlds best welder. Some sawed up iron and a mig welder does not a manifold make. I would be surprised if the welds even held up the weight of the turbo once it went through a few heat cycles.

Edit: the bead isn't even complete across the front side of the flange

 

[JDMPlaya]

yea, I noticed all of that, I didn't go with it.
