Custom built turbos
Either way, that's great that your 15k turbo kit works for you. The twin kit that you bashed from the sponsor here also works good. Get off your high horse.

Tool u are But hurt evertime u see stuff u can't afford.
I'm a little butt hurt, I like my truck manifolds, they usually outlast headers, and I spent a lot of effort cleaning them up, and having them ceramic coated.
Notice how I even rounded the top corners off the mounting bosses for the heat shields, so sharp corners didn't dig into my hands when I reach down to change a plug.
I'm sure everyone would like some nice fancy tubular manifolds if they could....but absolutely they are not for everyone. And for 99% of people here, almost any type of manifold used will not be a limiting factor. So it really is a moot point.
Do cast manifolds look bland ? Of course they do. But they are cheap, they perform, they're reliable and they're ******* easy to change plugs. IMO there is so much win there.
And certainly in my own case, there isnt a hope in hell anything tubular would fit anyway. But if I could have had custom tubes made...of course I would.
At the end of the day as long as the exhaust gases get from the cylinder to the turbo...the kit will work.

. Ok I'm over it. I guess I may be the only one that sees it as humorous how builds can range from one extreme to another, and everyone be happy with what they have. We have the group that is after "bling" and the other end we have the "billet free" crowd. I guess I'm confused in my ways because I have both truck manifolds, and a turbonetics turbo, since they always polish the housing. I can appreciate both the megabuck,custom fab everything, to the $500 Ebay builds, as long as the work is done correctly and with some care. Further for better wieght transfer , like on the that 1st gen camaro Denmah buddy has , I
