I got my OBX manifold yesterday and in the bottom of the box, with NOTHING protecting it was the gasgket I pulled it out and noticed it was bent, from bein on the bottom and under all the weight of the manifold it was bent by the flaps of the box...

Viper, I know youve built a members kit with this manifold, will this effect anthing? and did you re=enforce any of the welds? if so which ones?

Bent..bent slightly like this on both sides.

The face of the above picture just looks kinda sh*tty. The surface isnt as clean/smooth loookin as i would expect and the ports you can see are kinda uneven

Well, you get what you pay for eh? cool.gif

 

You said the next time was a freebie!!! mad.gif lol when i pay pall you the 200 for the intercooler, im goin to add in some more $ for sojo..how much does bottle cost? seein as i turn 21 tomorrow i figure get a lil korean alchy

true ham, but id rather pay 180 for a manifold viper is using and has used on other peoples cars, than pay over 400 for a different one

^^When i get it...ill pour you some into a bottle or somethin and mail it to you?! that way you can see if you like it lol

 

Bryans got a ramhead manifold that he made, but it did get his nod of approval.

 

mark marcheson from exhaust technology fabricated my current manifold.
