collectors are kinda shitty. wonder if its just open inside there or if it channels down.
the 'serpent' manifold is different.. the 2,3 cylinder runners are much longer that 1,4. not sure how well that would work with the pulses and such.
welds look like a turd.
on the ram style, the 'horn' on the left is not symetrical with the one on the right. and also, the turbo flange is not parallel with the exhaust flange.
pretty shitty fab job if you ask me for the price.

I would ask for pictures of the inside to see how well they dressed the welds, from here and im not expert it looks like the collector is a big glop of weld wire. That's my slightly better then joe schmo but never done any welding in my life view.

i actually thought about getting it and using it for the turbo kits, but that entire description is a turn-off. and i asked for better pics. never got any.
WG flange is crap... not exactly sure, but me thinks it would hit the hood possibly.
but at least they threw that and the EGT port on the manifold, which is nice.

the one posted by yamaha is really ugly. it looks like he used an arc welding machine to make that manifold!
the one posted by Badshah is quite acceptable, though I wish the price was way way lower for that quality.
