I wonder why OBX puts the logo on the bottom of the mani where no one can see it...
so no one can see it......:haha:I wonder why OBX puts the logo on the bottom of the mani where no one can see it...
Has anyone serouisly acutally tired one??> it looks like it would work pretty well.....Brace the fucker, keep it vibrate free....and it should work fine.....look at all the people running Megan/OBX headers on the D's......
What I'd personally would like to see is this mani off Ebay : ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/D16-...6QQihZ020QQcategoryZ33742QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem ). D16 CIVIC 1992-2000 "BLURR" TURBO MANIFOLD / DOWNPIPE 50mm Phat Runners - Not Rinky ****** Cracky Ho'...

yes true it is a little pricey.....i thought about using a 30 dollar Log mani....that would do close to the same thing.....but i am thinking ehhh....what the hell, mabe try it out....and if if crumbles like a cookie, well my loss! heh....
it looks sick, but i just don't know... I think i'm gonna go the drunkinmaster route and get one of those cast mani's that come from the DRAG kit... he said he hasn't had any boost creep issues...What I'd personally would like to see is this mani off Ebay : ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/D16-...6QQihZ020QQcategoryZ33742QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem ).

OBX has been known for some fitment issues and are known to be just another eBay knockoff company for some. I've also noticed that the OBX Intake Manifold has worked for some with minor modifications...
Cast mani's FTW... Heard of complaints about boost creep too. But it comes from non-owners. Owners usually say they've had no problems. But does anyone actually have, and have been running for some time the knock-off Drag look-a-likes?
welll check this out guys.....i emailed him in regards to weak steal ect.....this is what he had to say....

its going to break, doesnt matter what he tell you about the metal its made of.
shit, sced40 steel breaks and cracks due to the heat and weight of a snail. do you think that paper thin stuff wont?

So you guys are saying a cast manifold is the best choice, except maybe for bling?
Nope. Custom Stainless is the best way to go...
yes and no.So you guys are saying a cast manifold is the best choice?
longevity (sp?)= yes, they are the best bet.
flow wise= no, simply because the exhaust gas is moving at different speeds thought the manifold causing "conjestion", and possibly reversion if the motor out flows the turbo (i doubt this last one, but anything is possible).
I have an OBX Manifold, it is a/c and powersteering compatible! This thing is made with some thick metal, thing ways almost 50 pounds. The welds are not the best but appear to be sufficient as well as each runner is braced right by the flange. The ports would definately need some attention with a dremel cuz them bitches are lopsided haha. But anyways if you want one, i will sell you mine for 350 shipped, brand new in the box. Bills are kicking my ass so i gotta sell my turbo shit and take care of some debts. Let me know if your interested and i hope i helped in some waywelll check this out guys.....i emailed him in regards to weak steal ect.....this is what he had to say....
