i own this manifold and it is a work of art, beautiful welding. my mechanic, builds 1000hp supra's, looked at it very close and said the same thing. this manifold comes from ssautochrome which is also obx.
the best thing is, it only cost 275 bucks and that was without e-bay. if you get it cheaper on e-bay then good to go.
i will let you know how it runs this weekend or the beginning of next week. the car is in the shop as we speak having everything installed.
i will be coating the manifold prior to install but i will take pics of it first.
if random will allow me to post pics of everything, i will so you can see the manifold and everything else.
let me add to this before i get killed by red or random. the guys building my system, here in orlando, are called "garage advance" their web site is garageadvance.com if anyone wants to check them out. my car will be the first tiburon they ever worked on and they use this forum for tips and answers.

OBX doesn't make that, it's the Kore/Motoria design. You should have waited, they will modify them for you with a flange for an external wastegate wink

the person i was dealing with when i purchased this manifold was from the obx web site so i figured it was from obx. thanks for the correction though, now i know. it is still a good manifold though.
as for the flange, garage advance is taking care of everything.

OBX is actually in the process of producing a batch of those turbo manifolds. I think they bought some Motoria manifolds so they could study them (and, hmm, copy them wink ), and they put up some auctions to see if there was a demand for the manifolds.

Hopefully, the first *true* OBX manifolds will be ready by the end of April. I'll be test-fitting one as soon as they are ready, and will certainly let you know about it, along with a lot of pics and comments.
