Turbo cars have tubular manifolds, not headers ... and there is no need for one on the 3SGTE atthe power levels 99% of us will see.

Getting a tubular manifold is just opening youself up to frustration when it does end up cracking (and it will).

They are pretty, not proven to show worthwhile benefits on the 3SGTE.

OK thanks. you just saved me a bunch of money.I thinking i would get a faster spool up. would it be worth it to port my stock ex. manifold? I'm was afraid that thinning the walls of it would compromise its integrity and possibly crack. what are your thoughts/experience on this?

My thoughts and expereince are plenty of people have pushed well beyond 400 rwhp on the OEM exhaust manifold and I plan no shooting for 450 rwhp on it.

If it's not broke, don't fix it

well cool, cuz my manifold only has about 10k miles on it. thanks again. you just saved me money... was gonna get the tubular steel manifold. it was so" pertty"
