    Yeah PPF is one: http://server.pure-pf.com/webshop2/e...-manifold.html

    And in Finland at least there is a ton of local shops that can manufacture high quality m20 turbo manifold on order. You could look out if there is some shops close to you also.

      I just seen the add on Facebook again, there called mint performance. Looks pretty nice not sure on pricing though.

        That's a pretty good price before shipping compared to what people who make them here want.

          Yeah. It's not cheap or anything. But for the price you get really high quality product that will take years of abuse without cracking.

            But will it? Are there any long term durability reports? Weekend cars don't count, you have to put some miles and hundreds of heat cycles on these things to know if they'll hold up long term. Barring a flawed piece, that's the reason I've had cracks and many others with the same manifold haven't. Even engineered OEM cast manifolds that are designed for durability and mounted with strain relief crack sometimes, it's difficult to build something that doesn't, especially when it's a cantilever design with no gusseting.

              Any manifold built out of schedual 10 pipe should never crack.
