I'm looking to upgrade my tuned length highmount manifold. It leeaks and has warped and is a prick to fit up.
I'm looking for someone who is making steem pipe or thick walled manifolds that are good quality (in VIC).
Would be happy to send mine to be copied as I would like my turbo to remain in the same place to prevent more mods to intercooler piping and dump.
I have searched and searched and now the words are beggining to look blurey and I still cant find what i'm looking for.
Surely by now there would have to be a company fabricating these by now.

I was a lil weary on the ones on ebay as I havn't seen them around for long.
If I had some feedback on them I'd give them a go, I also thort the high mount in the pics on ebay looked a lil wirey like spread out, Not like a traditional tuned length manifold.
Yes definately get me through his number.
Thanks heaps guys

Those Ebay manifolds are made of mild steel with only 1.6mm wall thickness.
If your getting it hot from working it hard climbing terrain etc and then hitting cold water while doing crossings there is a very good chance of it cracking.
