How is the quality of the gt manifold

[bob123131]

I was planning on buying an ported evo 3 or maybe spending the extra buck for the SBR manifold. Now though there is that gt manifold that turbochargers.com and dsmparts has. I think i will still get the evo ported because i don't trust these cheap new manifolds but does anyone have some experience with one or know much about them. Sorry if this has been posted already but did a quick search and didn't find much. If i got the gt manifold anyone think it would be very likely to crack? I only plan to go about 375hpw tops.

I have heard good things about them so far. Nothing bad as of yet but it is still a new manifold. If you are only shooting for 375whp why upgrade at all. I upgraded my manifold on my 1g and just got a ported 2g one it and I couldn't feel any difference between this one and the SBR one. Stole it off a friend's down car for a while to see if it changed anything and it didn't. I would just stick with what you got, port the hell out of it and spend the money on something better.

I have a ported 2g manifold and have surpassed the 375hp mark without a problem. Why buy something new when you already have what you need to reach your goal? Put that $ towards something else you will need to help you reach the power you are looking for.
