Yes but tobys are mild steel not stainless making it stronger therefore longer lasting . roadrunner ones are usually known as the best just a shape ivans stopped trading .

theres also silk road which are stainless with a ceramic coating but stoll wont last too long

can't forget the Zisco ones...made out of SUS321, and very well priced as well...Great design too ensures great boost characteristics, come braced, and loads of variants available...including External Wastegate (soon to come)...

they're insubstantiated chap...you can't be affected by internet rumours of people that have probably no idea about manifold design or any physical experience with them. Yeah, i've had it on for a while now...I wish I could give a more accurate description of it's effectiveness, but my car is less than healthy. Regardless, at first I ran it without the Blitz decat being braced...and that was for at least a month...no issue. Braced it up now, but it always pulled very hard, and unlike the CT9 the response would be relatively good after 5000rpm...i.e. the boost didn't really tail off...

unlike the ct9? didnt use it on a ct9 then?

yeah i really fancy getting the zisco ones, but really cant afford the steel ones yet, mild ones are in my price rangeish, but i would want it ceramic

nah, it's on a CT9 chap, I just meant the behaviour is unlike the CT9! I don't know, I think mine is special...I have no air filter, a Blitz decat etc...never ever got Boost creep :p And with the new manifold it also pulls well at the higher revs (as it's design implicates). However, it doesn't create too much lag either (which is perhaps what the people were trying to imply of the manifold's design)...I reach full boost at around 2800rpm ish?? A bit worse than stock, but not detrimental to the response.

I'd just get a Mild Steel one and heat wrap it chap if monies is an issue! You won't regret their effectiveness...especially if you get a Hybrid and try pushing 1.1-1.2bar

well thats the plan yeah
currently very slowly doing to headgasket, turbo was cracked, so found a ct9b, and manifold is cracked, so looking into them. and the future plan was a hybrid.
