I have heard that these are made of sub-standard stuff, and that they aren't thick enough and they crack...

Has anyone had any GOOD experiences?

read the sticky in the forums "ebay manifold"

gotcha.... it looks in the pictures like they have added a brace from the turbo flange to the exhaust flange, or, 2 actually....

is this an improvement over earlier designs? or did the old ones have it, and break anyway?

if it was designed properly in the first place, it wouldn't need to be braced.

next to fuel management, the manifold is the 2nd most important part of a turbo setup.

That brace still wouldn't do anything, because it's at a 90° angle to the weight vector of the turbo.
