i'm holding no reservations on this. will the manifold crack? probably. Rick's cracked too and it wasn't a cheap one. I know how and have access to a TIG welder, not really too worried. will the turbo blow out? possibly. If it does then I might consider getting a turboneutics. everyone is hung up on "brand name" shit. When I go to the drug store, i'll buy the generic medicine before i'll buy tylenol, because its the same shit just with a different name on it yet it yields the same results. I'm into this thing so light it's not even funny if i can make the power I want and not have to spend a small fortune to do it, I will.

It has nothing to do with being brand name. It's about quality. Your analogy doesn't make sense either.

yes, because greddy, turbonetics, precision, and every other turbo manufacture never has failures. I've read horror stories on every turbo out there. I get it, you don't approve of my purchase. but it's my money and i'm pretty confident its going to do just fine. i'm not gonna get all butt hurt if it doesn't end up working out, no reason for you to.

I don't care either. I'm not the one stuck driving it.
